In the news

The disabled have had a desperately bad time of it since the present administration was voted into office (by a minority of the population I might add, but that's another story). It has been reported in the press that the law is about to change, and people with chronic conditions that never improve will no longer have to be re-assessed every six months or so. This will apply to autistic adults, which is good news. Autism is, however, classified as a 'disease' along with MS and all sorts of other things. Well autism is not a disease, but that's just nit-picking. I still don't trust this government, so it's going to be another time for waiting and seeing.
