In regard to dignity, I would comment that what we hear from people living with MS and other episodic illnesses is that they want to work. They want to have the satisfaction of being able to make a contribution. If they're currently unable to work and they reflect back, that's often their first comment, “I wish I could have kept working longer.” If you have MS, there's a 60% unemployment rate, so the social side of being able to make a contribution is very important.
The current system is a binary switch—either you're in or you're out. One of the additional recommendations we would certainly have is to make sickness benefits flexible. In my opening comments, I spoke about a work-sharing program. In addition to that, right now you have to take sickness benefits all in one lump sum. For an episodic illness, there could be a few days when you're unable to make a contribution, but when you're in remission, you're able to come back to work. The rigidity of that particular program makes it very difficult for individuals to feel as though they're making a positive contribution.
