Frank, your daily briefs for the state of the pandemic in the State of Alabama are so thoughtful and powerful. Thank you for taking the time each day to write them.

Please address this:

The discrimination against the medically disabled in this country, in this state, it is beyond appalling.

This is from our state. Yep. They just jumped the bandwagon. I advocated like crazy. My only saving grace now will be getting the letter my mom’s VA doctor is supposed to write designating me as her caregiver. Handling another’s poop and pee catastrophes certainly will make you age faster.

But what is happening is NOT okay. It never will be. I’m going to haunt these people from the grave. Because if no one else is going to advocate for people like me, who will? Who? And I’m serious. I survived a hostile womb just to basically have my life devalued by my home country and my home state of more than half of my life? You better believe I’ll haunt these people from the grave.

My state posts this:

People like me are dying in high numbers.

But then they post this in following the misguided ACIP and CDC bumping the people like down even further on the vaccination priority list.

Why is our government trying to kill us?
