Is this our most heartless govt ever? - Lilith7 - 31-08-2024
Disabled toddlers therapy unfunded after govt changes. His medication is over $500 a month so they're now having to fundraise.
This govt. just don't seem to have understood the reality of the changes they're making; for some it will mean life or death, including this child. Or is it that they understand only too well but just do not care?

Family no longer able to plan for disabled son's future. He's severely disabled & needs 24 hour care. They've had a team of carers but may now be unable to continue due to the changes.

Of course, heaven forfend they should miss out on - well, anything really.
Remember those old early 20th century comedies about mean evil landlords keen to chuck out families - unless of course, the very attractive wife or daughter was inclined to be more friendly towards him....
