Dear Editor, 

I would like to praise Rep. Charles McMahon who is running Republican for State House - Rockingham 7.

My son Sean, who is 5, suffers from chronic kidney disease, chronic bladder disease and seizure disorder. Rep. McMahon is dedicated to helping parents like myself (who are care providers) manage our children’s care in the comfort of our homes.

As a member of the Health, Human Services & Elderly Affairs Committee, he worked with his committee to deliver a better and more cost-effective program for chronically-ill children, like Sean. Rep. McMahon co-sponsored the Pilot Program named Sean William Corey. This program represents an opportunity for the State to provide better “care services” and significantly reduce the cost of services to Chronically Ill children.

He is a strong advocate for the disabled and chaired the statutory Wait List Oversight Committee to sell the legislature on a quick elimination of the list. He has reformed outdated institutions and placed children back into the homes of their parents. He continues to work with legislative leaders to deliver true Health Care Reform. 

I encourage voters to support a true leader who, as State Representative, will continue to work hard to improve overall patient care, while saving costs.

Patricia Corey, Salem
