Confused Parkinson and LTD insurance

Having diagnosed PD for more then year I started to look on other consequences of my disease and I need an advice from somebody who has been on this road for more longer time.
I am still working full time as an engineer and will try to work as long as I can. But signs of decease become more and more visible (mostly tremor).
So in some day I will have to quit my job or will be fired (what is better ?). What then ?
What resources are available for me ?
I have Long term disability (LTD) insurance from my employer but how can it work for such slow developing case as Parkinson ?
Do I have to hire LTD layer now?
Do I have to inform my employer ?
Many questions… I will be appreciated for any advice.
