Yesterday, I went to our capital to protest against the budget cuts. My state is cutting too many human services and health care services. A group of disability groups when to our capital to protest.

It was great and exhilarating to be with others who feel the same way. I met some great people.

I spoke to Kat yesterday. She felt I am not capable of being a leader in this only a follower-- a great follower. The meeting is Tuesday, 6/30/09. I went to order a cake for 20 people for the meeting. She will buy ice cream but not for me. I will have to buy my Tuffuti.

We are having budget cut talks in Columbus on Tuesday. She asked me to go. CILO will pay the way. Yup the same day. I will be be testifying. We both want to be in Columbus and here at the same time. I will know more Monday.

I went to the library to look at some grants for the event. The only one I found was 10 years old, I asked the librian for a newer book, he is looking for one.

I have knowledge of being disabled and unable to work due to welfare and medicaid policies. If you work and make over a certain amount of money you lose your benefits. With Medicaid Buy-In, you can remane on SSI and work.

This is national program that is run by the states. It has been approved by 39 states. If you want information, search for Medicaid Buy-In
