Elizabeth Grigsby
Elizabeth Grigsby lives in San Francisco, California. An advocate with a non-profit organization, she has cerebral palsy and uses a motorized wheelchair.
“Oh just relax let us do our job and when they went…to lift me you heard this loud pop in my knee.”
“…all I could do was cry…I felt so like I was being treated less than a human being.”
“They wanted to put me in a SNF [Skilled Nursing Facility]…basically where you just go and waste away.”
“My life as I knew it, was over.”
“I can’t get a full…physical examination because I can’t get on the table.”
“You’d think, okay it’s almost 2013, can we get it together.”
