Re: Lynda [epilepsy] Re: Is this an issue for anyone else?

 

i know with me mental retardation is genetic with me, i'm mild mentally retarded, learning disability and epilepsy years later to a head injury. my doctor told me that i don't have a chance of fathering a child that will be normal, most likely it would be mentally retarded. i did get a vasectomy when i was 20 years old so that i wouldn't father a mentally retarded child. i'm very happy with my vasectomy otherwise.

b genetic as well.

I think they used to do that to Epileptics, which was wrong, and I'm glad
the stopped. Epilepsy is very complicated. It can be congenital, or
contracted from injury or a virus. Either way, I have never heard of it
being genetic. And even if it sometimes is, sterilization would be a
gruesome and cruel form of discrimination. That's how I feel, regarding any
type of disability. Humanity comes in many forms. All of them are worthy.
Challenges are opportunities.

considered. Certain changes are normal, for anyone, like a drop in desire. I
have brought this up with my GP and NP. Each had the same response, but not
without acknowledging that my temporal lobe injury and seizure meds (Keppra)
could be contributuing to my lack of desire. Yet, as time goes on, it's
changing. It's not exactly like it was before, but it did come back. It's
been 6.5 years since my injury. My attraction to men was always first with
their intellect. True originality is my biggest turn-on. No matter what he
looks like. And that type usually is consumed with their ideas first, anyway
So the sex is hot and fast, just the way I like it. I have always been
bored with men who need it over and over and over again. Don't they have
something else to think about? Please. See...I'm back to normal. It just
takes time. And, as always, having people in your life who truly love and
> accept you for who you are. Your lack of desire isn't about them. It's
about you. You are with them because you care about them, in the first place
right?
