Rancid

Hello friends and family, Here I go again. The College will not allow a substitution for the remaining math classes because I am failing them due to a disability. Student services recommended for me to change major. However, I only have two semesters to go to finish it. I am just behind in math that's it. The trade Act is now reviewing my transcripts and I guess they will determine if I stay in the program or not. They do understand that I have a disability. That is not the problem. The problem is that there are new rules in place. Me trying to be an honest Christian I have given them all my paperwork regarding the disability and college transcripts. I told TRA/TAA I have worked all my life with this disability and I have done very well. It is not my fault that the companies I worked for in the high-tech industries have a tendency to leave the country and search of cheaper labor with the same qualities of my profession. Also, I cannot control the aging process. I refuse to go on we...

A very good question that has been asked for many years. Should euthanasia be legal? I believe it should. There are a lot of people that believe it should be legal. If I was suffering from a terminal disease, and my pain could not be managed that would be the route I would like to go. The problem is a social-economic one. If my pain could be managed even if I was terminal then I would like nature to take its course. But I also have to figure out what will be the cost to my family and would my insurance company cover the medical aspect of pain management and hospice. I suspect, but I could be wrong, that the hospital industry and the insurance industry would be against euthanasia. As long as I am alive I am making money for somebody. Once I am dead that's it the buck stops after my burial. If one thinks about it the same system applied to pets. There are occasions where there is a solution to a pet illness. However one just can't afford to pay for medication or long-term trea...

I Just came home from the college, and things are not looking that well. The problem I am going to confront is the inability of completing my Major because of my Math disability. Student services received the letter from my neurologist; they really cannot find any substitute for the math courses I need. I am doing great in the other courses that I need to take for the major but I am failing math with a valid reason. I have to return back to the college to talk to me director of the major that I am taking to see if he has any solutions. I was told about one student who had a similar disability, had to take one course at least 6 times that means two years of taking the same course over and over again. I do not have a problem with this if I had to do the same thing but it wouldn't be economically feasible because I am going to school on a government entitlement grant. I do understand the college point of view they don't want to become a paper mill college. They basically funct...
