Copobo- Looks like most of the caregivers and their patients know what is going on but nobody knows what to do about it. Where the hell are all the patients' rights groups? This is kind of ridiculous. We need to influence the people that are influencing this medical advisory committee. Or is it really just the people in the committee? I have a hard time believing that. I think we're going to really get screwed on this issue. It could be the end to caregiving as we know it.

Releaf- Maybe you could chat with the MMC owners or owner on the Committee, can't remember how many there are but it might be worth makin a phone call and see if you can get any more info. Thanks for being an activist, I've been slacking at staying up to date on this and wouldn't have even known they were ready to start throwing more rules all over the state.

I'm going to talk to as many caregivers as I can and ask that they drop the department a line about what it means to be a caregiver, there are some good answers being posted around. I wonder if this crap will happen behind closed doors. This meeting should be public. Also, thanks for sending this out in you're news letter to everybody. If only some more MMC's would follow along this would be a lot more public and our chances might just increase, who knows.
