Earlier today the incorrect article from the Washington Post was cited re: The Supreme Court's decision on disability. Here is the correct URL: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/national/longterm/supcourt/stories/cour t062399.htm . Frankly, I was suprised that there wasn't an uproar on the list. In a nut shell, the decision says that if a condition can be treated (by medication) and as a result the individual can "function" and not be limited in their major life activities, they are not considered disabled. That leaves all of us who are still working in a very precarious position. If our production should fall off due to advancing PD (or adjusting to new meds), we could be fired w/o recourse.
