Here's a reminder that tomorrow is the press conference at the Old Pima County Court Building, at 115 N. Church Ave, at 10:00am. See the flyer below for more information. Or contact us! See you there!

On to other business. Over the weekend, I received the first letter from the county, concerning changes in my care, that I have ever seen. It was vague, of course, and I imagine they wrote it under duress. They, the administration making these choices, still don't think there is a problem. Yet even my case manager confirmed for me on Friday, at our face to face 90-day review, that not one of the 19 agencies on the list can, at this time, cover my needs and provide the care I currently receive. And even she is counseling me to be patient and wait to see what happens. How can I do that? If I wait till it's all over and it goes badly, the only person who will suffer is me. For everyone else, it's a 9 to 5 job and they get to go home, be done with it and say "oops, sorry about that."

As for the project, it is slow but sure. Still need to get this out there to more people with stories to tell. Another part of the plan is to do a bit of research at the library. Online, there really isn't a great deal of information to be had. So, we are going to do a division of labor. Jennifer is attempting to find information concerning the Midwest and I will see what I can find on the Southwest. We're hoping to find enough to compare the various states and how each handles, or not, the issue and implementation of in home assistance for clients who don't need 24 hour care.

Enough for now, see you tomorrow!
