Thank all for the responses. I have had a busy and very stressful summer. Because it has been 10 years since surgery, I decided to have more Neuropsych testing done in June to see if I could learn anything there that may help me retain information better. It showed that I have a Reading Disorder. Believe it or not, that is a disability too. The psychologist in my doc's office who did my testing told me that sometimes people are able to get through undergraduate school with it, but in grad school with its rigorous schedule, it may be detected then. Guess that is right. I went through Disabilty Office and do quallify for accommodation. I have seen the Learning Disability office for that and my contact there has recommended accommodations.. At this point though I don't think my school will allow me to stay. The will know about the epilepsy, surgery, and LD. Even though it would be discrimination, professional schools are a different animal and nursing especially sets itself apart. I am considering either a transfer or another option. I feel I have so much to offer those like us but am hitting road blocks in my growth after surgery and do not haver time for that. The growth after this surgery has been phenominal to me, but I may have reached an end here. At a loss really. Thanks for being here. Tattoo
