Sounds like Vadalyn needs some sensitivity training, as well as a pry bar to assist her in getting her head out of her ass.
Does she have an employer, or a higher-up/union you could file a complaint with? Even if they don't do anything, they'll at least have it documented. Is there any literature out there on brain injuries that you could give to her? On one hand, it may clue her in, and on the other hand, it'll let her know you're aware of what she's been saying. Bullies don't like to be called on their shit, and her behavior is not acceptable, period.
For what it's worth, when I read your posts, you come across as being VERY intelligent and well-spoken. I'd say she's got her own issues, is very emotionally immature, and is projecting this onto other people.
I know it's hard to not take it personally, though. I've been there. :(
