Parents Please Read And Pass On To Anyone and Everyone!!!
Parents,
This is a message from an amazing parent and family from our room. We need you to click on this link below, read, and sign this waiver. If you don’t it can have is potentially devastating effects on this family and many like them! The two minutes it will take you to sign will give everlasting benefits to one of our families!
My daughter is a brilliant and amazing little girl with a sense of humor and a lust for knowledge! She is a valuable part of our family and our community! She has a future that is unknown, yet VERY hopeful! We cannot predict the future for any child however, I can say for sure that if my daughter does not receive her frequent (11/wk) therapies or her 24/7 care and treatments she will never reach her full potential! If we are to lose the waiver program because of short-sighted and economically unsound political mismanagement many families will be unable to care for their profoundly complex children. These children are better in their parents care and will be more likely to reach their full potential and possibly find independence. Can you imagine having YOUR child in an institution or hospital just because politicians deem them costly or worse, disposable. We have asked these politicians to meet them so they can see who they are devastating but they will not. These children have no voice! PLEASE!!! help by signing and urging your friends and family to do so also. PLEASE!!!
