Default the way it should be!

Eric -

Thank you so much for sharing your story - it brought tears to my eyes.

I am of the optimistic bent that most will react as your employer did, with compassion and reason. If given a welcoming and understanding environment, most people with PD can keep working long past dx. And you are correct that if not, then who needs the stress; if a new job is beyond comprehension and ability to cope .... that is why we have the Social Security system. Take care of your health!

A great seasonal message!

keep the faith
