What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Missouri
My wife is a para-professional (teachers aid) in a school district. She has had that job for several years and has always been outstanding in her job. She also suffers from mild seizures on rare occasions (spaces out for 30 seconds or less). She has had a couple of recent episodes at school in the last couple of weeks, after having nothing for a few months. She is on medication and we are trying to figure out if she nees to up that. She was called in to the office and questioned about these seizures and the tone of the talk made her believe that her job could be in jeopardy. I'm just trying to find out if the school has a right to terminate her due to that, or if she has legal rights as possible disability. She has always been a top level employee.
