Hello quick note to online coordinators of the scope community I am sorry if this poem sounds like angry but I am just passionate about helping all people with disabilities.
Poem called crying shame 
Our careers that us with our day to day activities are not even getting paid their true worth because earth knows how I would be able to do things. It’s time this government truly has the guts to do something that can really help us as all people with disabilities and our the family members who are helping us must get their true reconciliation not through our love and gratitude to that person but through money. It’s time for the government to open their eyes and start hearing our cries for help. I just want to say to our government please stop bearing your head in the sand this problem is not going away. Put her hands in your pockets and do the right thing by people with disabilities and the people who care for them for goodness sake,

    Poem called our calls for help 
    As people with disabilities we are being left behind by our government. Which makes my blood boil as person with disability. We just seem to be another statistic of number to those our government. 
    We are much more, and not just a score on your piece of paper. 
    What is it going to take before our collective voices of all fellow people with disabilities come together as one force and unite as one voice, and create a movement which can be extremely powerful we link arms together and fight together till our collective voices are heard and the positive changes that we as all people will all disabilities have been looking, I say one thing to our government please look into the faces of our people with disabilities who have so much pain and anguish and suffering and sadness their faces and eyes, this what our government has done. Our government just needs to stop taking and it’s time for the action of the government giving more money and funding in those areas that could make a real difference to all lives of people with all disabilities. Which mean that our people can live our lives in the best possible way and circumstances that we can live and pursue the things that really make us happy by all having them wonderful smiles on all our faces of our people with disabilities, but can only happen if our government makes the right decisions to help us which would be a big plus and must keep challenging our government till financial backing comes from our government.
