I’m Black, Latino, gay and disabled. I’m very liberal with a blue heart 💙 I was so happy to leave that other app filled with so much toxicity. I’m very happy to be surrounded by like-minded folks. You’re safe in my space. 😀

OMG I am so excited. The agency that sends me home health aides just let me know that they finally have a male on staff they can send to me. I’ve been waiting for this for almost a year. All the women they’ve sent have been great, but I’m a big guy so it’s been difficult doing transfers.
