Common learning disabilities in children who have cardiac problems?
I need to provide examples on exposure to nursing people with a learning disability. I am a child branch nursing student and i was on placement on a cardiac ward in a childrens hospital, so a range of kids with varying heart conditions.I didnt really look after any cardiac patients with a learning disability but i have to provide some examples on how i nursed people with a learning disability.I did sort of nurse the mother of a pateint who was deaf, but deafness is not a learning disability.Could anyone help me, i dont think they need evidence of the example, i just think my personal tutor wants to see that i understand what learning disability nursing is about and my understanding of it.I would appreciate a proper answer thankyou.

Is there any chat site's for adults with learning disabilities?
My sister is 31 years old and she has a learning disability. She kind of has a mind of a 8 year old. Lately, she has been going to chat websites just to chat given her mentality she hasn't got many friends, if any , she only goes to the chat sites to talk to people, make friends and just so she can have conversations to fill her time.But the one's she goes on are not suitable for someone like her. for example, she starts crying when someone swears at her on the chat sites. And for some reason, the users on the chat sites have not realised that she has a learning disability. So... i was wondering if there is a chat site's for adults with learning disabilities? Somewhere safe for her to go on, and where she can talk to people she can relate to and in a similar position.I was thinking of getting her to sign on to facebook, but she hasn't got friends to add. Any idea's would be greatly appriciated.

Dealing with my learning disability and seasonal depression...what should I do?
This one's long, but I'd really appreciate some advice.Ever since I was a kid I've gotten depressed every fall. It's like clockwork, and I don't really know why. I think it's a combination of the weather and going back to school, which I've always disliked. I didn't really think about how " normal" it was until a few years ago, when people seemed okay with going back to school each fall and I was always miserable. I just hid it and acted like I was fine, but I always felt horribly unmotivated and sad for no real reason.I've always had trouble paying attention in class. My attention span is insanely short and I'm always forgetting important things, like deadlines and appointments. I was diagnosed with A.D.D in high school. My mother is from another country where learning disabilities don't really exist. She's completely in denial about the whole thing. When I bring it up as an excuse for my average grades she always says, " But you really don't have A.D.D." It's very frustrating. I'm a very smart person, but I can't seem to show it academically. I always get average grades. As many of you know, average today is about equal to just straight up failing. There's too much competition for jobs and getting into good grad schools to just be " average." I always felt that I didn't need medication, that I could handle both the depression and my learning disability. And I was always scared I'd become dependent on it. But after this semester, I think I want to give it a try. I transferred to a new university that I was never fond of my parents essentially told me it was this place or community college again , so my usual back to school depression was worse than ever. My motivation was low and I started drinking a lot. The result was my usual average grades, plus my first D in college.I am tired of feeling hopeless in regards to school and having to put in so much more effort than everyone else to get good grades. I have a lot of anxiety about my future because of all this. My question is, am I justified in seeking medication at this point? Will it really help me? Also, because my mom would NEVER support me going on medication, how would I go about it? My parents are supporting me through school so I wouldn't be able to pay for it myself. Any advice about this would be very appreciated. Thank you.

Learning disability nursing exposure on a childrens cardiac ward?
I am a student child branch nurse. I know i have asked a similar question. For anyone with knowledge about children admitted to a cardiac ward, what sort of learning disabilities might a cardiac patient experience.I have to write about how i was exposed to nursing people with a learning disability.I am struggling with providing examples, as i do not recall nursing any child with a LD. There were kids who had behavioural problems but is that a learning disability???I dont know if could use the parents as examples... i just need to invent some examples really. I dont need prove these examples took place, the university just wants to see that i understand what nursing a person with a LD is all about.
