Hey Steph,
Glad to see you making a move towards Freedom, it isn't an easy thing to do from a nursing home, I know because I've done it.
First off you're going to need some help doing this so start calling local ILC's and ADAPT at www.adapt.org and look up your local contact.
I applaud your bravery in making this decision and I think you're making the right one.
My life has changed so much since I was sprung, hell I mean I have a life!
This list and the people on it gave me lots of support and advice when I was making my
transition and I can't thank Mr. Lubin enough for starting it.
Mark

Hey Everyone,
As you all may or may not know I've been living in a nursing home for 4 years and when I first got on this list many here encouraged me to think about getting out of it. But, at the time, I wasn't ready. Well, call it an itch, call it craziness but I'm longing to be out in the world again but need advice - is it worth attempting? Where should I begin my journey?
I live in rural North Florida near Jacksonville and know that Sec 8 housing there is backlogged, but maybe I can try? I'm not a SCI and don't qualify for the BSCIP programs. Give me pointers, ladies and gentlemen, please? :o)
Steph
