Perhaps someone on this list would have a few minutes to speak with me by phone about &#8216;the rules&#8217; for Medicaid \/ Medicaid recipients, so I will be better informed. I would greatly appreciate your counsel.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m also trying to identify an assisted living residence that<br \/>\na. Accepts Medicare \/ Medicaid<br \/>\nb. Is located in Dallas (If possible)<br \/>\nc. Has at least a few deaf residents.<\/p>\n<p>Please note that I&#8217;m not looking for an assisted living center for the deaf. Only a handful of those exist in the nation, and Heritage Square in FW, where he formerly lived, is being investigated for serious violations of the law. My fried&#8217;s health is gradually worsening and at this time I feel that an ASSISTED LIVING RESIDENCE where a just few of the residents used ASL &#8211; his language &#8211; would be appropriate for him.<\/p>\n<p>I am the guardian for Ahmed Al Ghazawi. He&#8217;s blind, deaf, has MS and has been abused by his family and the administrator of Heritage Square, against whom a legal suit will be announced.<\/p>\n<p>Anne Marie Weiss<br \/>\nDFW International Community Alliance<br \/>\n972-661-2764<br \/>\nEmail: annemarieweiss@dfwinternational.org<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear friends, I&#8217;m the new legal guardian for a deaf and handicapped adult for whom I need to find an ASSISTED LIVING RESIDENCE in Texas if possible.
