What's the point? Failure.

Greetings all:
I'm not hoping for much here but I will ask the question anyways. If a person were to hypothetically have lost their ability to learn new information efficiently? If a person were to have failed in almost every aspect of their lives, what would you recommend? People talk about Donald Trump declaring bankruptcy three times during his life and that others have come back from huge failures. While that can be somewhat inspirational, people like that usually have the basic tools that allows them to come back from failure. It's called a fully functioning brain that has the capacity to keep learning new information.
I certainly don't want to turn this into a victim like post, but if a person has to struggle with learning for the rest of their lives which makes almost everything else difficult in their life, why bother? So that someone can say in forty years that you lived your life like a bereft and incompetent person for the entire time? Why should a person continue on living if they aren't able to overcome their circumstances?
