I feel you are so right. If Jukia had been in a special chool she would not have made the same social progress.<br /><br />It is very expensive to provide the level of support that Julia gets, but the benefits are enormous. However, you are right : many people jut cannot imagine themselves being in that situation. They condemn those who cannot fend for themselves.<br /><br />America is a wonderful country for the rich, and even for most of the middle class, but it does not do a good job of looking after the poorer members of their society. So many people pride themselves that they do not live in a welfare state.<br /><br />It is better here in many ways, but the kind of program you got for Julia does not exist as far as I know. Such intense home therapy is paying off. Let's think positive about the estate being finalised. What a nightmare.<br /><br />Love, MarianneMarianne Frasernoreply@blogger.com
