I'm sorry, I forgot that Americans don't understand irony.

I know someone in your situation (retired due to disability). She's
smart, very smart. But her area of expertise is in the area of European
languages. Give her a classical Latin text to translate into Modern
English and she'll have it done in no time. However her mind just
doesn't work on technical matters and computers are a total mystery to
her. It's totally incomprehensible. However when it comes to almost
anything else she can run rings around you.
