D-Mom Nicki Nichols was searching for help when she experienced a roadblock with her daughter\'s state provided health insurance so\\xa0she sent an email to Rep. Jeffrey Guice to ask for help getting her type 1 diabetes supplies... his response was, lets say, less than helpful. I assume that you\'ve heard the saying, "Don\'t poke the bear"?

Maybe it should be... "Don\'t poke the diabetes mom"
