I wish I could cheer you up and give you some words of wisdom, but I can't. I am 52 years old, have a Master's Degree in Social Work from Columbia University and worked my way up to a position that I loved working in health care. About a month ago I got laid off. I guess I could understand if they had just laid me off, but they blamed my "brain". They said I didn't have the right kind of brain to do the job. Of course this is illegal, I got an attorney and I'm getting the some money, but I want a job. I want to use my brain and my skills that I worked so hard to develop. Every day I wake up and think, today will be the day. I know things will get better,that's one thing we don't do, we never give up. It's not the dyslexic thing to do.
