mbrook: Great advice here, as always. You will need to find the balance between how much of your anger is justified and how much might be an adrenal-fueld over-reaction. You have every right to be angry at how you lost your job, so don't blame it all on your brain injury.
Vinni is so right...people are afraid of brain injuries because they don't understand them. It makes no sense to someone who hasn't been through it that you would suddenly discover 3 months later that you can't read. Before watching my daughter go through this exact same thing, I have to admit, I would have been suspicious of someone with that story. My compassion for others has grown exponentially as my need to understand has diminished.
You are obviously a person of faith. Don't let the behavior of these people destroy your faith. Remember that things happen for a reason and You WILL learn great and wonderful things through this experience if you keep yourself open to it.
