Here is Paul Kiel’s take on the same mental health issues in the state of Missouri. I thought it may be interesting for all of you to read about a different PersPective on all this.
Paul, I am very sorry that you went through what you have. We must stand together and fight and we need to get more of the deafies to come stand with us! We need to get them to see that they won’t change anything by being all bark, no bite.

Well, both Hearing, Deaf and deaf people with audist attitude who rejected Deaf people like me as well as they don’t want to change for a better. I am still waiting for them to wake up for a long time. They are still not wanting to see the whole truth and still ignored our severe abuses toward Deaf babies/children/teenagers/adults/eldery people going on in our Deaf community by Audism. They dont want to hear the truth that hurts, no matter what.
Somebody gotta to face the reality that has a real happening to Deaf human beings. TRUTH must be told, no matter you like it or not.
I agreed we need to work together as teamwork. I can see many of them have the issues of their own self centered too much which it s not gonna to work this way.
Take care!
