  • If you don’t mind me asking, are you visually impaired? We think my mom may have non-24, but the doctors have said they’ve never seen it in someone who wasn’t legally blind or totally blind. It’s been very tough on her in the last ~20 years or so

    Also, you said there’s decent healthcare in your state. Are you in the US? If so, I’m not sure about proctologists, but there’s normally some kind of community GP/PCP clinics in most cities, but my trick has always been finding one in a fairly rural area within an hour or so of the city, and if you can manage to convince them you live in the county, there’s normally much better care out there, since they aren’t as overwhelmed as they are in the city itself. Not technically legal, I’m sure, but it’s always helped me. Free clinics in Metro areas are so overwhelmed and underfunded, but outside the city they’re still underfunded and overwhelmed, but not quite as bad, at least in my experience









  • Wasn’t aware of the term, but that’s my mom. She learned to read before she was 3, and was reading books meant for middle school children by the the age of 4. Moved on to grown up/high school and beyond books by the time she was like 7 or 8. She’s also been a life long lover of word and number games, and taught me how to count cards when I was kid. She can count cards in games with 2 and 3 decks. Got kicked out of a casino for it when she was in her 20s. Lol.

    Eta:

    Her sisters (closest in age is 11 years older than her) taught her to read, and all of her siblings were also young readers, but none quite as young as her.
