Take note of this when dealing with ABs especially when they are in an
administrative position over those with disabled people.  There are those who
want to keep getting government money by claiming they are helping the
disabled but are holding people back so they can keep raking in the money.
UCP here didn't want to lose the money coming in for having Sherry in their
program.  It's the same effect that those with MD say about Jerry Lewis, that
they don't like being pitied upon like how the MDA telethons portray those
with MD.  There may not be any public celebrity but it's still happening with
those with CP.

I was hoping before I found out I was to be a father again, someone with CP
in another state who is willing to do something different with their life.  I
was looking for someone to start a new life together.  Now I feel like I let
Lorri down because I wanted to have a life with her and now with Susan, it
almost doesn't seem possible now.
