[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 439868, member: 84"] Can he appeal? Isn't there a certain number of appeals you can do? Travis got out of the repetitive task with supervision due to the seizures. His epilepsy makes him a danger in a factory setting instead of an asset. Companies won't hire him. Perhaps if he had a recent evaluation from a neuropsychologist? I find it hard to believe that they can't grant it to him when they gave it to my friend's husband just because of his seizures, not saying someone with hard to control epilepsy wouldn't need it, but the man only had uncontrolled due to the fact he doesn't take his medications half the time. He got his neuro to write a report stating why it was dangerous for him to work ect. Phht got it first try. If difficult child's mind wanders to that extent, even if you had factories near.........he wouldn't be able to keep the job and would wind up injured due to not paying attention. Have they ever checked him for absence seizures? (not uncommon after a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) by the way) I also think it depends on where you live and the people you're dealing with as opposed to how things are interpreted. Here, it doesn't seem so hard to get it. A good sound doctor report stating why you can't do such and such is usually all it takes. easy child wants me to try due to the Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). I'm not so anxious to do so. Refused to consider it at all until we went over my employment options. Cuz I thought, well heck I could always go back to cashier work.....but that probably wouldn't be a good idea considering the issues I have with math and money. But I keep thinking I could make so much more if I work, of course it would help if the job market in the area hadn't just tanked again. sigh I still think Travis' is due to the combination of dxes. If one doesn't bit him in the rear another one will and so on. It doesn't leave him many options.....and that is sort of easier for them to see. If he hasn't gone through the gambit of appeals, I'd find him lawyers skilled in disability who only get paid if he eventually wins and go that route. I also have a feeling difficult child Mom's meddling had something to do with this. ugh Hugs [/QUOTE]
