I NEED SPACE

The State of Missouri.

Are you Listening?

I need space.

Missouri has to do a better job

As far as government housing goes.

Don't penalize me because I am on Medicaid.

I  need space.

Wider doorways.

Wider hallways

Big bathrooms too.

To accommodate lifts, powerchairs, and caregivers

I need space.

Obviously, the State has no idea.

The needs of a powerchair or manual chair user.

I need space.

What if there's a fire?

I need to get out fast.

A narrow hallway,  I can't get past.

I need space.

The State's solution?

Move into the house.

The State needs to see that there is a need. 

Before they agree to make the necessary changes.

Then move out while renovations are being done.

Then move back in.

I need space.

Move three times?

Missouri's out of their minds?

Do they realize how hard that would be?
I don't think they do.

I need space.

I have one question before I am done.

It's for my state representatives.,

Would you want your loved one to move three times?

I need space.

This post is titled  I Need Space.

A more accurate title would have been, "We Need Space."

Because all of us who use mobility aids do.

I urge you to call your representatives of the State of  Missouri,

Tell them...

We Need space.
