I need a maintenance for my diabetes.

I am a retired teacher and I am diagnosed to have diabetes type 1. I am insulin-dependent yet I cannot afford the maintenance medicine my doctor prescribed me. I need a financial aid that could support my daily medications and other medical check-ups. Given the lack of sufficient money, I am notified by the doctor of complications if I don't take my medication.
