Former Bengal lobbies for kids care in Ohio
Boomer Esiason, ex Cincinnati Bengals quarterback, urged Ohio lawmakers to restore funding for the Bureau of Children with Medical Handicaps. He cites Rebecca Watson, a 10 year old with dermatomyositis, and his son Gunnar’s costly cystic fibrosis care. He notes proposed 16.5 percent cuts in the 2006 07 budget, the largest at the state Health Department, risking medical bills for thousands of families.
