Sunfish Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 thanks for posting the link, michelle...not that this has anything to do with anything, but my grandma (nana) went to marshall many years back. and there's a movie coming out soon about the school (if it's not out already...)i'd love to have more info on the details of the case (what accomadations she requested, etc.). i'm almost certain i could have won an ADA case when in grad school (and some atty friends agree) but i didn't have the energy or desire at the time...cared more about trying to get the necessary changes made & attempting to stay in school. melissa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
persephone Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 Ditto- I'm with Melissa. You all know what a horrific time I had at Oxford last year but had to choose between a lawsuit and my degree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eli6596 Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 This would be a good poll topic. How many of us have been discriminated against in our workplace due to POTS? I was. I was forced to leave even though I had finally agreed to perform all my pre POTS functions. They just did not want a sick person around. I was so upset....an understatement. I NOW have a job where they treat me like a valued human being despite my limitations. They value me for what I CAN do!!!!!! I would love to shove that Marshall article in their face. I did not sue my previous employer because it would have taken too much of a toll on my health. Someday they may have an limiting illness and perhaps regret how they treated me. What goes around comes around. Sorry to sound bitter, but I am in a "mood" with the holiday demands. As someone else said in another post, letting things wash over you without too much upsetment is the best for my health too.Karyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
