Re: [epilepsy] Re: 9.20 landlord-discrimination update

 

Many Fire Departments work with disabled clients to put up their own emergency medical key holder with a code only fire+rescue medical have access to. So they can always get in because they bring it out put the *notice & code at your address.
That solves that. If your fire dept doesn't have this, buy one yourself and give only fire & medical rescue the notice for your address and the code. If it is not in plain sight then describe in your contact so they can look directly to it and get the key quick.
Then vomitong = no dogs, cats, babies, infants, children, adults or elderly should be allowed to live there for they could vomit.

Yes, that's their thinking. That if I get sick to my stomach during a grand mal, they say they aren't "qualified to handle bio-toxic material". Which, is my understand, is not true. They make is sound like I'm giving off nuclear radiation or something. (-:

I don't always get sick to my stomach, I've never lost control of my bowels, and I think it's common for SOMETHING to come from a person's mouth or stomach during an episode.

I still haven't had a major episodes since February of this year. I average 2-3 a year normally.

In their mind, and letter, "this is an apartment building and not a medical facility" and claim to be "concerned" about me and that I would be "better in a supervised" location. "What if he has a seizure in his apartment and they need to break the door down?"

They are concerned not about my health or myself as a person; if so, she could have even asked me about the epilepsy. The only concern noticeable is about their property, keeping it looking nicer and I feel they want it 'protected' from me.
