Why I am supporting the Patriots
he grew up in San Mateo CA and went to the same church that I went to for CCD and basketball. I played on a inclusive basketball team there and now a little guy with DS plays there because I recommend it to them when he played soccer on our county special olympics team

Guess who I met
So last Tuesday I went to San Francisco's pier at night. It was nice because it was not crowed or anything but I was not there to sight see. I was not there because I like the city but yet I was there to go the Aquarium by the bay but I was not there to see fish.
I was there to see a movie and not just a movie but a Q and A with the film maker do you know who yet?
I will give u a hint he is also a father,
He is a fabulous photo journalist his work has been in Time Magazine
got this from http://elmercqegs.files.wordpress.com/2011/03/time_magazine_logo.jpg |
It Was DAN HABIB OF INCLUDING SAM.
I was so excited to meet him and listen to him speak. He is soo good with presenting there were some kids there and it was really nice that he took the time to interact with him. He had recognized me and during the presentation asked me to stand up and I got a standing ovation. I really loved going it was soo cool because I finally got to 'meet' him . Of course we have been Facebook friends for a while now. I really love having IRLs. I was in my element going to stuff like this really solidifies that I want to be a disabled advocate on the rights of inclusion of students with disabilities. I am norm, something I am a part of is going to be having another youth summit and this time I will be attending. The best part was that the evening changed people's attitudes and got the conversation started. Thanks Dan for coming hope to see you again soon

America 2012
I have never been to CHOP which stands for Children's Hospital of Philidelphia nor do i plan to donate a penny to them?
Why you ask
Meet Amelia she is a little girl whose needs a new kidney yet her parents were told by CHop that she can't because she has as the doctor's put it ever soo nicely. can you hear I am being sarcastic here Mental retardation and brain damage.
This is not fair as a advocate for those with disabilities It feels as if we are back to square one where kids with Intellectual disabilities yeah that is the right term are put into instutions. Socity has come to a census that this is wrong yet a DR can still say fthis in 2012 that is not fair.
As a person living with CP I feel deeply saden by the fact that this can still be said in 2012. I have been preaty lucky so far in that I have not needed and surgryies and would hate to think that someone would say no to me because I was not fit to live. Isn't that what Adolph Hitler did in Germany nearly 100 years ago. Isn't that what slave owners did to blacks when they treated them like horses during slavery. yeah that is exactly what they did but we now look back on that with same.
COME ON AMERICA WE CAN DO BETTER.
