HAHAHA!! I love the disability comments!! I have one employee who had polio as a teen and walks on two crutches and one who has MS. I worked for 2 months with an extruded disc fragment in my lumbar spine (seeing a patient and then going and lying down, seeing a patient, etc.) before I finally broke down and had surgery and then the day following surgery left the hospital and went to the office to do 2 hours of paperwork! Now I am no martyr but,the point is, if you want (have) to work, you will find a way. My patients know I am not very sympathetic when it comes to their requests for disability.
