Where can we get free diabetic supplies?

I am diabetic type 1. Fired Friday, uninsured, without salary, not unemployment.Where I can get help to cure diabetes? My wife and I have no children at home. We can obtain a health card in the state of Ohio. My wife is disabled, but not by the government. Received a disability allowance? Does anyone know where to go? Start calling the offices of state (see the blue pages of your telephone directory first) on how to apply for health coverage for the uninsured. Sorry, not much in the way of free stuff. You can visit the sites of the manufacturers of insulin as Lilly, and often have problems with a program, you can apply for low-cost or no insulin. If you are in a pump, go to www.ipump.com, which may have supplies for you. toughest.use meter bands and then have a generic store brand meters because their bands are the cheapest, maybe before that date have been installed by the State for medical purposes. Hey, you can get a http://wwwbestsaversclub.com/freemeter freestyle here and other information related to diabetes. Where in Ohio are you located? I live in Akron Ohio near Cleveland area /. You can go to the Municipal Labor and Family Services, and will help temporarily. Most municipalities have a job to help you find a job of some sort. Otherwise, contact the city or county health department. Some programs to help people with certain conditions, to a very low price. A few years ago my husband had high blood pressure, and for $ 5 per visit, he saw a doctor and sent home with medication. I think some places similar programs for diabetics. Ah, so I tell the health of the city or county, the county that I had lived in both, and operating independently. So if you find the county has two, and then call them. In addition, there are free clinics all over. You are not known because they do not advertise much, it is not easy to do in his budget. I know Cleveland has one. Here is their website: Their website is http://www.thefreeclinic.org/ talking about it helps diabetics. Also, try to call the 211th, if it helps the locations in your area who can help, you can find them. But remember that help is available, knowing that they have not. So if you call them discouraged at first. Sorry, I know many areas in Ohio are rural and have none of those options I mentioned. One last thing I can think of. Is it so send me your address and tell us what you need. My daughter is a type 1 diabetes and we have a few extra accessories. No extra insulin (sorry!) but maybe I can help you with other things. Good luck! -Edit-I do not know what I thought. Ding Ding is true that some places will give you medications for free when you register. But it takes a while.
