Re: “State should offer people with disabilities dignity, choice” (Dec. 18, Opinion):
My husband and I’ve reached our 70s, and for all of our daughter’s life, our essential concern has been what is going to occur to her once we die. It is a chorus now we have shared with many dad and mom of kids with disabilities.
Stacy Dym’s op-ed advocates for take care of disabled residents. Fortunately, after a few years, the Washington State Division of Social and Well being Companies has not too long ago supplied our daughter with a brand new residence that enables her to stay independently locally. My husband and I are very grateful for the care and assist she receives in her new residence.
It’s my want that every one those that want these providers will have the ability to obtain them. State of Washington, please present these providers to those that want them. They not solely help the person, however strengthen our whole neighborhood.
