Organizations such as The Dept. of Mental Retardation, MS Society, Spinal Cord Injury Assoc., Cerebral Palsy, Disabled American Vets, etc, etc. would have a good chance of backing this endeavor.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13755018867446972946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1556371561007953336.post-45064847268619509842011-01-27T23:13:56.593-08:002011-01-27T23:13:56.593-08:00Your digital camera should have a method of puttin...Your digital camera should have a method of putting the date each picture is taken on the front of the picture. I believe jpeg is the best format to use. Then dated photos can be backed up on cds and if necessary say "Look Doc."<br />Most towns and cities have paid and free organizations to help the disabled. Perhaps contacting them via email to sign a petition to legislators would work. After all, the people in charge of these organizations want job security...money.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13755018867446972946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1556371561007953336.post-57963503332852859742011-01-27T22:24:54.010-08:002011-01-27T22:24:54.010-08:00William,

Of course a "name" would be necessary, such as "Enforce the ADA". Then find a way to reach out to as many disabled adults and parents. That would most likely be the difficult part. Perhaps then a letter of petition that could be signed via internet and then sent on to legislators.<br />I recall reading about 5 or 6 months ago where this method was used to stop the stoning death verdict of a woman in Iran. At this point in time, this woman has not been stoned to death.<br />We cannot forget the power of the internet.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13755018867446972946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1556371561007953336.post-86151318530317983892011-01-27T05:01:38.002-08:002011-01-27T05:01:38.002-08:00Carl, If I keep the beard I am going to look into ...Carl, If I keep the beard I am going to look into being a Santa at a kids rehab hospital. I bet paralyzed Santa are few and far between. My wheelchair is also cherry red so it keeps in with the seasonal colors.<br />Ginger, Now that is one damn good idea r.e. the tripod. I own a tripod and a good digital camera. Sounds like I could do this every Sunday or some such day.<br />I often think how we people with a disability could form a united political lobbying group. The best I can suggest is getting parents of kids with disabilities and people int he disability rights movement to hook up. Not sure how to make this happen.william Peacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00223601480542461802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1556371561007953336.post-44669795049960349662011-01-27T03:02:27.944-08:002011-01-27T03:02:27.944-08:00William,

Will think about this when I feel better.<br />Like your proposal of taking photos of your affected area and having your family help check your skin. Was wondering if you have a camera with a tripod or could get one. You could then take photos of your affected areas at the precise angle and distance from your body on a weekly basis, upload the photos to your computer if possible, for a visual diary to prevent more sores.<br />As they say, "a picture is worth a thousand words."<br />Very happy to hear of your progress!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13755018867446972946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1556371561007953336.post-79650855801536240362011-01-27T01:08:44.603-08:002011-01-27T01:08:44.603-08:00Glad you're feeling jolly!
