Kathy Jo,
You know I have an average of 5 hours of assistance a day. Others need more
assistance and yet they have their own apartments. So, you can do it, even
if they say 24 hour care is too expensive, it is your right to live where
you want to live. The law is called Olmstead, and I know that States are
having trouble helping everybody that needs it, but I urge you not to give
up. it may take a year. but don't give up. in the meantime there are
things you can do, like have somebody teach you about money.
Mag
