5,867. Shae Lorigan La Mesa, CA<br />

5,868. Alison Shepherd K<strong>in</strong>g City, CA People w/ private <strong>in</strong>surance help keep <strong>the</strong> medical cost for<br />

<strong>the</strong> state lower than it would if <strong>the</strong>y had no <strong>in</strong>surance at all.<br />

Cutt<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong>ir benifits is cruel and not necessary. People<br />

with no jobs and no <strong>in</strong>surance <strong>are</strong> bleed<strong>in</strong>g this country dry<br />

not <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r way around. You should be ashamed <strong>to</strong> cut<br />

fund<strong>in</strong>g for people who try <strong>to</strong> help by hav<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong>ir own<br />

<strong>in</strong>surance on <strong>to</strong>p of state funded programs. Everybody<br />

knows <strong>the</strong> medical <strong>in</strong>dustry is a sham and be<strong>in</strong>g able <strong>to</strong><br />

cover expenses by hav<strong>in</strong>g both state and private <strong>in</strong>surance<br />

is what keeps most families afloat. Shame on you<br />

<strong>California</strong>! Who <strong>are</strong> you help<strong>in</strong>g by cutt<strong>in</strong>g this program<br />

besides <strong>the</strong> millions of slackers who abuse <strong>the</strong> system!<br />

5,869. Steve Geer Seaside, CA A close family friend has seen <strong>the</strong> positive benefits of CCS<br />

for 2 of <strong>the</strong>ir children. One is still go<strong>in</strong>g through <strong>the</strong>rapy,<br />

<strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r can now walk because of <strong>the</strong> prescriptions for leg<br />

braces, walkers and o<strong>the</strong>r helpful devices given by CCS.<br />

The family paid for <strong>the</strong> devices out of pocket <strong>the</strong>mselves,<br />

<strong>the</strong> prescriptions came from CCS.<br />

5,870. Deanna Duarte Arroyo Grande, CA<br />

5,871. Sabr<strong>in</strong>a Gularte Sal<strong>in</strong>as, CA Because helath c<strong>are</strong> assistance and coverage should not<br />

be limited <strong>to</strong> low <strong>in</strong>come families; just because you <strong>are</strong> not<br />

on medical does n<strong>to</strong> mean that you have <strong>the</strong> money <strong>to</strong> pay<br />

for <strong>the</strong>se services.<br />

5,872. Valarie Harrigan San Luis Obispo, CA<br />

5,873. Sherie Kim San Luis Obispo, CA It would affect many children we work with on a daily basis<br />

negatively.<br />

Stiles-Spitler<br />

Nipomo, CA<br />

5,879. Maryann Graham San Jose, CA I have a dear friend who has an amaz<strong>in</strong>g sone who was<br />

born with a disability. No one knew ahead of time, and he<br />

desperately needs Medical Therapy <strong>to</strong> learn <strong>to</strong> walk. He<br />

will need multiple surgeries thorugh his life.<br />

5,880. Anne Thomas Carmichael, CA I have a daughter who needed services as a child and<br />

would have been an extreme burden on society had she<br />

not been given <strong>the</strong> <strong>the</strong>rapies she had <strong>to</strong> be able <strong>to</strong> walk<br />

and do activities of daily liv<strong>in</strong>g. The <strong>the</strong>rapies she had<br />

easily <strong>to</strong>pped $100,000 over <strong>the</strong> years she was <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong>rapy,<br />

an amount most families could never afford who would<br />

make "<strong>to</strong>o much money" <strong>to</strong> qualify for <strong>the</strong> services <strong>the</strong>y get<br />
