Groups at Anixter

I enjoy my time at Anixter Center and feel safe here. But the time I love most is our small groups like Monday Morning Mash, Song Writing ,and Digital Literacy.

For  example, Hannah is the best music therapist I know and Julie is an outstanding teacher. I thank them  for their tremendous work.

I love all of my groups and the staff who lead them, they  do their jobs with love and peace.  Have you thanked a staff person today?

    What a nice thing to say about your staff and your groups. Not surprised that Digital Literacy is one of your favorites, but I was surprised to hear that you are in a Songwriting group. How cool! Have fun and keep enjoying life David!

    Hi David! It was wonderful meeting you at Anixter last Tuesday and I had a blast playing Bingo with you. I hope you are writing down everything in your new notebook that you won (what a perfect prize for a writer!). I was very impressed by your plaque on display in the hallway at Anixter and even more impressed by your blog! Keep writing and stay well!

My Train Story...

I have taken many forms of transportation, bicycle, car, van, bus and planes. By far, my favorite form of transportation is the train.  I like the train because it is relaxing and fast. It is reliable. Usually, it is clean and quiet. It is very safe from crime and accidents. For people whose disabilities won’t allow the operation of a car, it’s the faster way to travel.  As a taxpayer, citizen and consumer, I believe trains, like Chicago’s Rapid Transit, are the most efficient, cleanest ride. Trains are also the best value.    As a developmentally disabled citizen and rider, I pay $50.00 per month for unlimited rides. This is the best deal in Chicago! Even at full price, it’s a great deal. Plus, there are so many interesting people on the train every day. For instance, today there was a lady on the train with a box of chocolates. I asked her about them. She explained that she was selling them for her granddaughter’s soccer team. I asked, “how much?” ...

What is the problem with Immigration?

I support Congress passing an Immigration bill that gives the  young adult " Dreamers" a path to citizenship. These people deserve respect and  should  not be underestimated  for their  contribution to our country.

Abuse & Neglect of the Disabled

Abuse can be social, like a verbal put down,  physical, like hitting or kicking, emotional, like yelling or threats, or even sexual, like harassment or assault. Neglect can be as simple as ignoring someone or isolating them. More terrible is failing to provide a disabled person basic needs like food or medicine or clothing or housing. Abuse and neglect of the disabled is wrong. It is also against the law. It's pathetic and it turns my stomach! If you, or someone you know in Illinois is being abused, call 866-800-1409.
