Dee and I got back from Texas the beginning of March after about 4 weeks away from home speaking at differnent conferences. We had a great time. We met a lot of interesting folks fighting for advocacy, inclusion and education for children. "Morgan's Wonderland" ( a family park for inclusion of people with disabilities) was interesting as I wrote in my last Blog entry. Hopefully this will not be the only park of its kind in the USA in the future. So we are getting things done for everyone to go beyond expectations in their life and enjoy life to it's fullest.
Now, last night I had the opportunity to watch the debate on health care and I know this is a very controversial subject but one of the reasons I like this bill is that it will do away "pre-existing conditions". As a disability advocate I have been in many conversations throughout the Country about the lack of understanding in this area. It was about time to "step up to the plate" and get this health care done for millions of people who could not obtain medical health benefits because of a pre-existing condition.
Dee and I will be traveling again in April to several conferences and meetings. Dee doesn't enjoy the driving but enjoys meeting people
I have been invited back to University of Wisconsin-Stout as a presenter at the Early Childhood Conference for the 3rd year. I remember as a student on that campus that this conference was a huge conference and thinking that I would love to be a speaker there and now here I am for my third time! Have a nice week.
