I thought we had another obamma thread for a minute, until I saw the woman part.

But she’s missing most of the LEFT side of her brain. Maybe she will prefer Sarah Palin.

No, this lady learned how to work with half her brain and is dealing fine with it, while Pelosi freely chooses not to use any of hers.

The left side is associated with logic and reason.
If she only has the emotional side, she’s definitely democRat material.

I was thinking that it was about Cynthia McKinney.

My daughter has a serious brain injury. The neurologist said on a scale of 0-10, it was a 5. I think almost half her brain is damaged. The doctors said they are surprised that she is not severely disabled and in a wheel-chair.

My daughter is doing okay, despite her brain injury. She does have a seizure disorder, but that is getting better. It’s controlled with medication.

She’s has speech problems, but she’s speaking okay now. She has some short term memory problem and she is not very coordinated.

However, she is in a regular private Christian school getting A’s & B’s. She can walk, run, swim, and ride a bike.

Most people wouldn’t know there is a problem.

The brain is very amazing.

>>”I wanted to do this so people like producers, photographers and security guards and police officers learn about people like me,” she said, “that I’m normal but have special needs, and that there are a lot people like me, so that they could be more understanding.”

That is what we used to call deference. I don’t see anything wrong with that.

>the human body is amazing.

What can I say, except that the God who designed us is an AMAZING engineer.

I’ve heard that it re-wires itself around the damage.
