• Worry Over MD and Working

    Posted by Danielle "Dani" Liptak on January 26, 2021 at 1:18 pm

    Do you worry about losing your job because of your MD? There are a few scenarios that I can think of when it comes to work and degenerative disease like MD. For me, I was working as a therapist for people with autism. My muscle degeneration progressed quickly in a year, and I had to modify my job greatly. Luckily, I worked for an understanding and accommodating company, but I did take a pay cut and felt like a lost some status in the way people looked at me. I wouldn’t exactly call it pity, but I felt like I was below people.

    Do you worry that the company you work for will try and get you to leave or change your job because of your progressive MD? Have you ever felt forced out of your job or that you were a liability working there?
