Just to make you feel rough and the feels I am going to tell you a little about my cognitive and neurological issues. When I was 12 I received a massive brain injury, I was not supposed to wake up from my comma let alone finish grade 8. Much later in life Epilepsy would become part of my life, I got an MRI done as I was walking into the neurologists office there was an intern looking at my MRI they quickly closed it and said “oh I must be looking at the wrong file.” I laughed and said yeah probably not.

I have the cognitive faculties to get a Bachelours degree and to have a vague understanding of what my brain looks like with my MRI. The most recent fMRI I did I got to see my squiggly lines over the course of 48 hours and had the mental ability to have a very basic understanding of what the lines meant. I have the ability to ask when I do not know something and not to be insulting to someone when they are asking questions about how to do something.
