      I was dx 10/2004. I've taken 2 years out of work (teaching) to improve my strength, balance and overall health. I handed in my letter of intent to return in Sept. 09. My Neurologist also sent a letter saying that I could return if I was given the following 12 accomadations. I was assigned to a 2nd grade. :).....
