The problem of Personal Care Attendants is really a difficult one and because we allow different standards to standard, the Feds limiting the amount they can be payed and the amount of help toward the cost of paying them varing from state to state really makes it a big issue. I have the phone number for cure off your tagline and can call you there or leave a message with my address. Ray's a very good sport not one of those possesive jealous types. Basically if he was I'd of dropped him along time ago. That one of the things that anger me also the concept of being someones property instead of a real person.
