1. As someone born disabled myself I know how Zach feels, unlike him I have a voice and ask my my mom why people are being violately cruel. I get too scared even go anywhere because how I am now terrified of everyone and feel only safe place is in my home. I don't want news anymore either, I feel sorry for him and family. Nobody is doing anything about it. And its why I wanna speak out for disabled people in my community who are voiceless.

2. I have cerebral palsy, and even though I'm not a nonverbal person I still can relate. I'm used to a routine too, but because of the pandemic, this has not in any way been easy for me.

3. “Fifty-seven percent of Americans say they’ve received a medical bill they weren’t expecting. Sometimes their crime was being unconscious in an ambulance taking them to the nearest (out-of-network) hospital. Other times their mistake was failing to stop their (in-network) provider from commissioning an $18,000 urine test from an (out-of-network) lab. Surprise medical bills like these are a major contributing factor to medical debt, which is the leading cause of bankruptcy in the US.”

   Surprise! We Need Medicare for All

I felt like my life was about to end i almost committed suicide, Thanks to a spell caster called Dr Abumere, which i met online, Some people testified that he brought their Ex lover back, some testified that he restores womb, and other sickness such as Cancer, HIV Aids, chest pains, Herpes Disease, Sexual Infection E.

10. As is known to all, it's the CCP's coverup that has caused coronavirus pandemic worldwide. But it has been found that coronavirus likes the CCP members and its followers. So, to condemn the CCP or reject the CCP is also a good way to protect oneself from the virus. please sign the petition to end the CCP: https://endccp.com/

25. I am this mom also. Except my son was supposed to receive nursing care 16 hours a day from the state of NJ for the past 4 years and had practically no nurses. Isaac's care was more than 24/7.He needed more than 30 meds a day through a specialized feeding tube, 6 hours a day of nebulizers held for him, nonstop suctioning. He couldn't sit up, walk, or talk & much more.He was with me and not in any day programs for the past 7 years. All due to government failures.
    Isaac was the most beautiful person & son anyone could ever wish for, but his care without any help took its toll on me & my entire family.
    Sadly, he passed away 6 weeks ago at almost 23 from his horrible disease. But Covid destroyed the last 9 months of his life, forcing us to stop all of his usual activities. Medicaid & this country needs to do better for families like ours. @isaacneedsanurse

Tent cities cover every park ! Shame Shame Shame Americans only care about "their" tiny world eviction filings our court unable to process already started laws NEVER enforced only the 1% shall now go to their private bunker.

33. I feel so bad for this family. The mom would need a break at one point. And what if mom gets covid? Who's going to take care of her son?

34. Disability means we are Down syndrome association of the real world of Covid-19 this needs to stop dying it’s not safe on risking of evil it’s bad for disability

35. NBC has a disability, reporting the news

36. Trump is the sitting president? Why ? That's what I want this guy to explain why ? For profits ? For money ? For power & control ? This could and still can be avoided minus what damage has alread been done.
