I teach high school also, mainly 9th and 12th graders. My colleagues all know about my MG and so will most of the students. My son will be a 9th grader and I will have him for geometry, his friends know I have MG too. Hopefully he doesn't get teased too much about my droopy eye. My students last year were very understanding. They knew when my eye was drooped that I wasn't feeling the best and they handled it well. I also sometimes mix up my words, but usually catch myself. Last year I missed the first month of school recovering from my thymectomy, so I clued all of the kids in on what was happening. When I had flareups I also let them know and also warned them I may mix up my words and not to be afraid to call me out on that.

I have enjoyed my summer, I have taken it VERY EASY. That's why I am afraid to go back because I have been so laid back, so going back to work may be a real shock.

Enjoy your last week of summer!
