-- You have no idea how much I KNOW I don't deserve another chance, but I'm praying for one anyway because despite everything, I'm still convinced this is possible with the right supervision and support.
-- If this had to happen, I really wish you had been the one to do it, not because I want to put that on you, but because you could've softened the blow and made it okay somehow. Plus you did say you would help me and they lied, ignored me, then did it behind my back, then ignored me some more.

-- I understand where you're coming from and I don't disagree with your position, just with your solution. A learning difference which you identified shouldn't immediately disqualify me, especially if you're unwilling to even consider adjusting in the slightest. I'll admit I screwed up, I never denied that, but was it really career-ending, because it sure took you a long time to decide that based on what you said it was.
