This is a video from msnbc.com (http://tv.msnbc.com/2013/01/10/governor-rick-scotts-disregard-for-the-health-of-floridians/ ). Rep. Alan Grayson, D-Fla., joins Martin Bashir to discuss the decision of Florida governor, Rick Scott, to effectively warehouse disabled children rather than helping parents care for them.
My son, Jake and I chose to watch it together and video tape it. Jake is 24 years old with cerebral palsy. He moves about independently in a motorized wheelchair. We were devastated by what we heard and saw.
Is it constitutional to separate a parent from her child because they are disabled? This seems wrong and criminal. Similar to the stories my parents told me about Adolf Hitler.
Governor Scott, you will never know the experiences, challenges, joys and most of all the love from a special group of people that have so much to give.
Dr. Sandra Frank and Jake Frank
