I assume you are not a doctor, either. Nor am I. Therefore I have no medical training upon which to base any decision concerning this person's health or ability to perform the duties required of the position.

Absent any presumed authority trained medical personnel MAY have, I will not be so pretentious as to impose my beliefs, opinions or moral ethics upon someone else.
