Same here.
When I accepted my current job I was 6 years into my dx and I told them of my PD and said I may only be available for 2-3 years. It is now nearly 17 years later and eneryone has been very responsive to my needs.
I have a handicapped parking place near the door ( I use it only in the winter). I get wonderful pledges during our annual walkathon. They gave me many wonderful gifts when I had my DBS surgeries. They have filled out 2-3 workers comp claims when I fell at work even though there was no injury involved. The list goes on and on.
Recently a lady I work closely with said I should use a cane and I said I didn’t want my boss seeing me in such a condition and she said she was in a conversation with the Executive Director and he said I have job for as long as I want to work.
Also my 27 year old daughter works with us and is being groomed for my job when I decide it’s time to hang it up.
I couldn’t have it any better!
