48. Hi.
I'm a physically and developmentally disabled psych survivor/ex-inmate. I'm on DAC benefits and Medicaid (which I use for important medications), and get services through the department of developmental services and in-home support services. I use a wheelchair and an electronic communication board. Like others here, I am terrified of the consequences if any of this is taken away because I know exactly what they ultimately are. But I will fight the encroachment and continuance of frankly murderous policies in every way I can and as long as I can: It's not as if I could possibly lose more by fighting than I could if they are passed, and too much is at stake to leave this kind of thing alone.
