“Five years ago, my husband died tragically and I just couldn’t get my life together after that. I started using drugs and went to prison. When I got out, I vowed to never get high again but I had nowhere to go. Sometimes the wrong things happen for the right reasons. Alliance Healthcare, a managed care organization (MCO) for public behavioral healthcare introduced me to LeTisha, Josh and Meghan at Easterseals PORT Health and my life changed forever. ESPH is my support right after God and my kids. Today, I’ve been clean for six years and I’m about to move into a new apartment.”
“Cerebral palsy can be challenging but I am very independent. I’m very grateful for the support I receive from Easterseals PORT Health. I’m 25-years old and a rubber duckie collector. Today, I have about 600 rubber duckies and I bathe with 15 of them at a time. I love the classic yellow ones and the squeaky sound when you squeeze it. I’m inspired by Charlotte Lee, who has more than 9,000 rubber duckies. Maybe one day I will be like her and have a lot of rubber duckies!”
