I just wanted to introduce myself.

My name is Edward Janus. I am a Disability Advocate and Activist
(Disabled myself). My Campaign and Mission is Fighting for Persons
with Disabilities. And Making Our Voices Heard. Internet Activism for
Supporting Causes of Change. Governmental & Political Issues,
Government Accountability, Fair and Honest Media Reporting, Consumers
Rights. Animals, Civil, Children’s, Human, and Woman’s Rights.
Educational, Health Care, and Environmental Issues. Abuse, Freedom,
Homeless, Hunger, Peace, Poverty, and Violence Issues. And many other
Important Causes. Sharing News and Resources.

A little bit more about me. I have Cerebral Palsy and an amputee (both
legs) confined to a wheelchair. I am homebound, shut-in. I have worked
to earn a living for almost 25 years. Then I had over ten surgeries on
my cervical spinal column (neck area) in my lifetime. Now I have been
on Permanent Social Security Disability since 1996. I was married and
have a daughter. In 1999 an automobile while crossing a street, struck
my wife. She died instantly. Now, I Live Alone. I receive only one
household income. A Social Security check monthly.

On a personal note, I would contact people by telephone, but I am also
deaf. I cannot hear very well on the phone. You can reach me by email;
all my activities and tasks are via Internet. Or you may send a
regular postal mail. Forgive me not Chatting, Instant Messaging, and
Slow Letters. Due to having Cerebral Palsy, it is difficult for me to
type with a regular keyboard. Therefore, I use the Windows 'On-Screen
Keyboard’ this way I can type clicking my mouse. This still takes a
little while for me to type.

Sincerely,
Edward Janus | Disability Advocate and Activist
