This is really a beautiful documentary showing the strength and power of the human spirit. As fantastic as some of the opportunities Gannet and his family has, it frequently feels in spite of governmental institutions than because of them (though obviously having a state funded apartment with multiple caregivers is extremely fortunate compared to policy in other cities/states). It’s just such a shame seeing how much better life could be for all Americans with proper taxation and beneficial allotment of that money through things like universal healthcare, more state funded disability care, childcare and elderly care, etc. People like Amy or Donal run themselves dry because they aren’t supported well in a country with money to burn. And obviously the painfully common American reliance on playing catchup with health problems instead of having free preventative healthcare. Gannet losing half his vision and not being able to get an immediate eye doctor appointment the day of was so anxiety inducing. I know documentaries rarely have “happy endings” because of the only ending to life is death, but it’s still frustrating. The state of disability care in the US continues to worsen.
