Democratic Rep. Jennifer Wexton Won't Seek Re-Election After Rare Neurological Disorder Diagnosis

Rep. Jennifer Wexton was initially diagnosed with Parkinson's disease earlier this year.
Her diagnosis was recently changed to progressive supranuclear palsy, a rare neurological disorder.
PSP causes problems with movement, balance, vision, speech, swallowing, and cognition.
There are limited treatment options for PSP and it progresses more rapidly than Parkinson's.
Wexton decided not to seek re-election in order to spend more time with family.
