Edit: The admins have told me if I don’t say this was an accident then they will remove the post.

It’s is verifiably an accident. It is also extremely convenient for the people she threatened.

    Epilepsy is not a symptom. Epilepsy has symptoms.

    “of” as in belonging to or annotating to, like “William of Orange” or “Side Effects of Ritalin.”

      your search engine implies “seizures” as the symptom but given the existence of provoked/symptomatic seizures, not all seizures meet criteria for epilepsy as your edit now suggests. And most epilepsies aren’t intractable. Which is the point about its impact on employment/ job duties.

        My search engine…? I think theres a language barrier here. Also I think my edit predates your reply, I’ll have to check on desktop later. I usually do grammar edits while on mobile.

        EDIT: Yeah my edit predates the reply by over 5 minutes.

          You’ll get the point for checking. Unfortunately this doesn’t tell us what your original post was and I surely don’t refresh continuously to see the edits when I send my responses. It’s also entirely beside the point.

          Intractable epilepsy (as in having frequent breakthrough seizures that is failed to be controlled on at least 2 adequately chosen medications), which I’d been repeatedly pointing to, may impact someone’s ability to work as a judge and can absolutely lead to medical retirement. Also, SUDEP’s incidence is about 1 in a 1000 patient years and the most telling part that epilepsy’s still left off the causes of deaths of a third of those cases. https://www.neurology.org/doi/abs/10.1212/WNL.0000000000004094
