Well, I've already mentioned how I personally got fucked by this shit--but the fiancee has a job prospect in Canada and you better bet we're gonna take it!
wow! congrats! I'm envious..
soooooooooooooooo this whole thing took a very personal turn today. If anyone had seen wftv at about 5:15 they would have seen a story on this Rick Scott cut and who it is affecting, namely my cousin. Wftv interviewed my uncle because my cousin is a SIDS baby who stopped breathing at 5 weeks, his brain is complete mush, but his body still lives.. he's been living with my aunt and uncle for 20 years, he has to have constant (literally every 30 minutes) care 24/7. He gets 2 nurse rotations a day and that helps take some of the pressure off my aunt and uncle (so they can work,sleep,eat,live) this cut took those nurses from him, the funds my aunt/uncle use to keep him alive and will have him shipped off to a 'group home' tonight..
I give him 6 months to live..
the kid isn't even as 'aware' as Terri Schiavo.. I can only hope that he doesn't have any idea what is happening. He's only known love and care and one home his entire,sad life.. now he'll be shuttled off to a group,state funded home, to be taken care of in God knows what way.. but not in the way he needs to live. Every 30 minutes he needs drops for his eyes because he can't blink, he needs his trach flushed because he can't swallow, and he needs his feeding tube cleaned.. he won't get that every 30 minute care in a group home..
damn..
Thank you Gov Scott and all who voted for you... I hope that tax cut for the wealthy was worth it..
