This evening as I was eating my dinner, I received a text from my sister asking if I’d seen the e-mail yet from DDD. I quickly scanned it, and saw that Governor Hobbs is calling for AHCCCS to go through emergency rule making to reevaluate the new assessment tool and provide a process for those
If this were an episode of something more titillating to view or read, the kind with rapt viewers eagerly awaiting a happy or scintillating ending, perhaps I might start this post with something like “dearest reader…” But no. This isn’t that kind of escapist retreat, nor can I predict a happy ending. A week ago
Yeah, that’s my stomach, and my fit bit. Photos by Ari and Ms. S That’s a shot of my skin with 2 Allegra, 100 mg of hydroxyzine, and prednisone in my system…and the hives still weren’t controlled or gone. Didn’t start getting better until 4 days into the prednisone. Most of my body looked like

Many legislators in our state proudly tout their pro-life support. This week, as letters were being read about the lives of disabled community members during a legislative session, some of our legislators walked out without listening, ultimately blocking a bill from being passed that would have resolved budget shortfalls to disability services in this state.
Just a change in app functionality can show a different picture. What my son’s letter tracing looks like for words without the app correcting the lines for him as he seeks to improve his motor planning and fine motor skills. Photos by Ariana Our son has now been without PT or OT services for two
To our Arizona State Legislature and Governor Hobbs: I have read that some in our legislature have blamed the governor for mismanagement of DDD funds. And to Representative David Livingston and all of the other esteemed members of our state’s appropriations committee, I would like to propose considering that another explanation is quite possible to
