Thanks for sharing the story of Harvey. I am a retired psychologist and have worked with people with mental retardation all of my career. I had tears in my eyes as I read the story. I have worked with many people who have had similar experiences with the county and state care institutions in the state of Iowa. Most are good places with staff who care about those people for whom they work. Thanks again.
