“I did an expose of an institution for the population with developmental disabilities, and the institutions were closed as a result of the expose. Now the developmentally disabled are cared for in small community-based residences, and I've been working very hard over the decades to open as many of them as I can.” I CanHardCommunityResultsInstitutionsPopulationDecadesDisabilityDisabledResidenceDevelopmentalSmall CommunitiesWorking Very HardDevelopmental Disabilities Author:Geraldo Rivera
“It's hard not to hate. People, things, institutions. When they break your spirit and take pleasure in watching you bleed, hate is the only feeling that makes sense. That's what I need to tell you. To let you know how hard I'm trying not to cave under the weight of all the awful things I feel in my heart. When I look at my day, I realize most of it was spent cleaning up the damage of the day before. In that life I have no future. All I have is distraction and remorse.” PeopleKnowsNeedsFeelsTryingLooksHeartHardFeelingsSpiritHateRealizingPleasureBreakKnow HowMy HeartWeightInstitutionsAwfulMake SenseDamageDistractionCavesCleaningRemorseHate PeopleCleaning Up Author:J-Ax
