The 200 word essay describing the inside of the ping pong balls sounds easy. Just write the whole essay on white paper with white ink. It describes the inside of a white ping pong ball exactly. Then you just ask her which description she disagrees with.
I have had one problem since early after my injury. I often work with power tools that have a cord. If I am using an extension cord on one a drill but need to change the extension cord to a shop vacuum, I try to take the drill cord off the extension cord. When I do this, I drop the extension cord and try to plug the shop vacuum into the drill cord. Not gonna work. I have tried to focus on the task to get it right but still will drop the end of the extension cord.
When I was still driving, I had a 1926 Chevy Suburban Woodie. I drove it because it has very good feedback to keep me focused on the task of driving. It was quite a sight and people liked to honk their horns at me. If they did, usually at a traffic stop light, I would get flustered and have to look down at my feet and reorient my brain to the foot pedals. Otherwise, I would not remember which pedal was the gas, clutch and brake.
It would be like they just crashed my computer and I needed to reboot. Never did come up with a term for that problem, other than needing to reboot. Actually, reboot works because I needed to look at my shoes which were often boots. At least I did not have to take my boots off to reboot. LOL
