Re: Tabaluga's 2.0

@TAB they seem to get everything as far as I can see. They have mainly African workers going in and out. I would not like to be in residential care but youre right about them getting chauffered everywhere. I studied some units in community development and was aware of some of the things you mentioned. Makes you wonder why NDIS was so hard to get into for the MI and the largesse of it once people were accepted. Would be nice just to have visiting worker for support in the community. Cost of seeing a psychiatrist is $500 according to Bunniekins. Just basic supports of accessing some kind of outreach. I used to have a lovely worker for about 10 sessions and after that you were left high and dry. She was a lovely woman. That was pre-NDIS before they dismantled most of nearly all psycho-social rehabilitation.
