Thought I would add a link that lists organizations that claim to provide insulin pump supplies free of charge if a person provides financial proof that they are eligible. I don’t have experience in obtaining free insulin pump supplies from any organization, so you may want to email these organizations. The link is:

The organizations listed at this link that appear to be the most helpful are:
http://www.charlesray.g12.com/
The Charles Ray III Diabetes Association (their email address is ***@****); Since I noticed you live in North Carolina, you may want to check with this association since their website says they are located in Apex, North Carolina. One drawback though is their $15 application fee. You may want to email them and explain your situation, and maybe they could tell you whether you would be eligible for their program without having to pay an application fee.
http://www.insulin-pumpers.org/
(their email address is
[email protected]); I wasn’t able to find any specific information on the website about financial assistance for pump supplies, but the link said they “offer financial assistance through their Insulin Pumpers Foundation program.” You may want to email them and explain your situation, and maybe they can direct you to the appropriate help.
http://www.ipump.org/
(their email address is program-***@****); Even though their website says they are currently only assisting uninsured children under the age of 21, they say they assist adults when “funding permits. You may want to email them and see if they are currently assisting adults.
http://www.isletsofhope.com/diabetes/assistance-programs/free-insulin-pump-supplies-1.html also lists and describes several other links that may be helpful.
If you haven’t already, you may also want to consider applying for disability through your local Social Security office since you seem to have a lot of health problems. If Social Security found you to be disabled, you would be able to get free health insurance.
Hope this helps & God Bless You!
