Susan,
For me it isn't just epilepsy. I have an additional neurological
condition, and on top of that I had an RTL. Between daily pain, memory
problems that included at least a 14 point drop in my IQ after surgery,
concentration problems in certain environments, light and sound
sensitivity, and other weird stuff, the combination is too much. I
can't be counted on because one day I am able to handle laundry,
cooking, dishes, the next day I might not even be able to do those
things. My memory makes learning new routines and things very very
long, and on a job you just can't expect them to put up with that. I
can't even be counted on to do simple tasks with my hands, so far it has
taken me over 5 minutes to type this email because my fine motor skills
are messed up plus I will type the same words more then once because I
forget I JUST typed them.
Let's just say, everything I do is an effort.
Kelly
