Thanks to the excellent standard of medical care Isabella receives and the substantial support she enjoys, she’s beaten the odds for people with her condition. Unfortunately, not everyone in the US can access the same level of care. Oddly, Santorum is one of the politicians involved inopposing reforms intended to expand access to health care, thus making a significant difference for people living with genetic disorders. This contradicts his stance taken in public speeches, where he claims he wants people to see the dignity in “her and every other child” and fight for the needs of families with disabled children. It’s obvious that Santorum and his family love Isabella very much and are deeply committed to her wellbeing. Whether that love translates into true dignity and inclusion for all people with disabilities is debatable.
