One of my coworkers informed me yesterday that she's leaving, and it's because of peripheral neuropathy. She was describing it to another coworker, who asked her, "can't they do anything about that?" She replied, "no, it's just part of the disease."

I really like her and I'm sad to see her go, but I don't think I know her well enough to offer unsolicited advice. I'll have to mull it over. We're friends on FB, so maybe I'll just talk about my own experience and see if she hits the like button...
