Marianne’s Story

Hello, I am Marianne from Traverse City, Michigan and I am a 66 year old cosmetologist living with diabetes. 

I am on Medicare and its cost is unbelievable with the additional cost of my medication Trulicity. With this medication, I am strapped financially, not knowing or exactly sure of where that money will come from. I am currently paying $280 a month for Trulicity which is a huge financial burden. 

One would’ve thought life would be easier in old age! – But I was wrong. 

We need lower cost prescription drugs now because people like me need them without having to choose to give up food, heat, or electricity, like I do.
