This is Amy.

She has forcefully and earnestly battled osteogenesis imperfecta congenital, the most severe form of the rare genetic disorder, since birth. Think brittle bone disease mixed with scoliosis and melded with multiple gastro-intestinal complications. Bend and snap.

She has never placed one foot in front of the other. Instead, she awakes every day to a body buckled, bent and bound to a wheelchair. The medicinal marijuana, outlawed in the state of Florida, crowds out most of the pain. Some still slips through.

Scott’s disapproval rating soars in new poll

Florida voters disapprove of Gov. Rick Scott by a 48-to-35 percent margin, says a new Quinnipiac University poll that finds the new Republican governor’s disapproval ratings have more than doubled over the last two months.

A February Quinnipiac poll showed Scott with the same 35 percent approval rating, but with only 22 percent disapproving.

Voters overwhelmingly agree with Scott that taxes should not be increased to balance Florida’s budget. But by a 64-to-24 percent margin, they don’t believe Scott can keep his no-new-taxes pledge. And they disapprove of Scott’s overall handling of the budget by a 55-to-36 percent margin, with 53 percent calling Scott’s proposals “unfair” to people like themselves.
