Old Story Archive: Disability Issues
cobalt123 08:22h

At some point I remembered that I had a story still online (I hoped!) in Open Source Politics that I need to retrieve and save. When one decides to finally write a book, it is most helpful to see what you've already written! Flash, inspiration!

Back in September of 2003, I wrote a story of how a Cereal Bowl Leads to the Psych Ward in Open Source Politics. Thankfully, the good folks blogging there continue on with great writers bringing a variety of viewpoints to political issues. AND they had catalogued and preserved archives where the story is still available online. Whew, no need to enlist the Internet Wayback Machine today! Here is the link for those interested:

So what is the point? I am writing about the first 25 years of a family's history. This family. It is a non-fiction work, however some that will eventually read it will find it to be unbelievable in many recountings. Yes, one of my son's was born with severe disabilities, but I have three sons and what has been our lives thus far is a story that is repeated countless times over the years by so many other families. Without giving away too much at this point, yes, I am now collecting those tales told to friends and they will be part of the work.

And thank you Professor Kim, for seeing and taking on the Bush Administration budget cuts to the disabled in your blog. Not only did she catch the story on funding cuts by HALF for low income housing for dependent adults with developmental disabilities and other disabilties - but she ran the story and ADDED HERS on Friday. Salute!
