May is National Stroke Awareness Month. This is my small contribution to the effort. I want people to know that stroke is the number one cause of disability and, along with heart attack, it is the number one cause of death. May my personal story serve as a call to action.

At a time when the American educational system is in jeopardy, some schools spend outrageous amounts of money to fight parents of disabled children over educational needs.
The controversies are often about money, despite what the laws say. The federal government has compounded the problem by reneging on a pledge to pay 40% of costs to educate disabled children under part B of IDEA. Neither schools nor parents are happy.
The Winkelmans disagreed with the school over the IEP for their son, Jacob. The Winkelmans felt that the plan proposed by the school would cause him to regress and deny him FAPE. School administrators refused to release any of the funds that they received for Jacob from the state of Ohio and demanded that he return to their system.
While the case was on appeal with the District Court, the Circuit Court decreed that parents could not appear in a federal court without a lawyer, despite the fact that other Circuit Courts in the country ruled parents had that right. The Winkelmans had thirty days to find representation or drop the case. As most families, they could not afford the fees, and the case was closed.
At one point, Sandee Winkelman became a target of the Cleveland Bar Association. They threatened to charge her with unauthorized practice of law.
The Winkelmans have been in litigation with the Parma City School District for a number of years regarding the free, appropriate public education which the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act requires their son to receive. The Winkelmans are involved in a lengthy court battle with the PCSD over whether a parent has a right to proceed pro se (for themselves without an attorney) in matters of the IDEA (the law addressing special education). The decision in that matter should be rendered within the next month by the U.S. Supreme Court. The decision in that matter should be rendered within the next month by the U.S. Supreme Court. In the current due process hearing, the Winkelmans are represented by attorney Andrew Cuddy, of Auburn, New York.

This article is a product review of the Bissell Powerforce Bagless Vacuum Cleaner. The Bissell PowerForce bagless vacuum cleaner cost me $49.97. There were cheaper less expensive vacuum cleaners than the Bissell PowerForce vacuum cleaner there at WalMart but none that were bagless.
