I like the idea of throwing in what the doctor said. It will help the skeptics
out there who are challenged with understanding exactly what is going on. I totally understand where you are coming from too as far as people you deal with asking the incredulous "you're still not better yet?"
I really applaud you being able to go back and teach, even if it is half days. My mom teaches, and I visited her 2nd grade class one day for maybe 20 minutes and thought my head was going to explode. So kudos to you!!!
