The Festival of Lights is coming up, and the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston will be filled with light, hope, cheer, and joy on Thursday, December 15th. That's because the Museum, in collaboration with the Jewish Arts Collaborative and Combined Jewish Philanthropies, is once again hosting their very special Hanukkah at the MFA event! Laura Mandel, the Executive Director of the Jewish Arts Collaborative, joins Nichole to share the details of the event, which is open to one and all. PLUS: Millions of diabetics are finding themselves in a no-win situation these days: pay for their insulin, or pay other critical bills, like heat or food. The skyrocketing cost of the critical diabetes drug is forcing many to cut back or go without completely, which can lead to dangerous consequences. Dr. Marie McDonnell, the Director of the Diabetes Program at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, breaks down what insulin is, why it's so imperative that diabetics have it, what's causing the price to rise so high, and what patients can do to get the medicine they need.
