Dear Frankie,
How timely is your message!!...
Earlier I wrote a letter to your Governor Schwarzenegger to please stop wasting money on purchasing cameras and suggested that he increase funding to hands-on care.
I had no idea about a new 'rule book'... Who is the author of these 'rules'?
Were any people with disabilities consulted? I think not.
Where are all the crips in California, who in the 90's were big movers and shakers and activists?
It is interesting to me is that the new chic and trendy masters degree to have now is in 'Disability Culture'.
Hang in there.
Paul

here's more insanity. The attendant will only get pay for services done in the home, not out in the community. If the crip wants to go with the attendant to the store to shop and if that takes longer than it takes the attendant on her own, the state will not pay the difference! Hey, that's why it is called IN-HOME services, not IN-THE-COMMUNITY services!
In Freedom,
Frank Moore
