New insulin Vile

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Walter Orellana. I am a 19 year old diabetic from Toms River New jersey. I was diagnosed when i was seven, type 1. I pride myself in being a diabetic as it shaped who i am. I am currently chasing my dreams as a photographer along with other jobs and activities to keep me active and moving forward at all times. I am a youth soccer coach in Lakewood for Lakewood Soccer club, I assist my oldest brother in coaching wrestling at Lakewood Township Highschool, I am a full time student at Ocean County College and i work 39 hours a week at Dunkin Donuts. I live a very fast paced life and i keep busy. Unfortunetly 1 day ago i lost my insulin vile. Diabetes type 1 means my pancreas does not make any insulin to sustain and break down sugars/ carbs in my body. Therefore i use artificial insulin to sustain my blood sugars and keep myself as healthy as possible to keep chasing my dreams and support my family and ultimately be succesful. I am currently seeking donations because since i lost my insulin vile, i cannot sustain my blood sugar. I have already used my insurance override from my insurance that only grants one over a 365 day period. A new vile would cost me 400-450 dollars. I am asking for help so i dont land myself in the hospital like i have before. Today will be the last day that i can sustain my blood sugar, by tomorrow, without blood sugar, i will enter DKA and i will be forced to be admited into the hospital. Any donations will help, Thank you.
