I’m registered to donate, they won’t take them unless I get an expensive genetic test. My brother just passed away, and they wouldn’t let him donate anything because we had an aunt a couple of generations ago who had Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (a prion disease that causes dementia)
I’ve tried digital books, but I’ve found that physical books work much better for my brain.

I have! But unfortunately, I had the same result as if it were my phone/tablet. I really wish I understood why it was like this for me so I could maybe work on it, but I guess I’m just one of those “need-to-physically-turn-the-page” people :/
