Peripheral neuropathy (PN) is a systemic disease characterized by symmetrical, distal damage to the peripheral nerves that negatively impacts patient quality of life (QOL).1,2 Prolonged symptoms associated with PN can cause pain, interfere with functional ability (e.g., dressing, driving, house-work), and disrupt emotional health.3.
 Papa Was a Rollin' Stone  is a psychedelic soul song, written by Motown songwriters Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong as a single for Motown act The Undisputed Truth in 1971. This version of Papa was released as a single in early 1972, and peaked at number 63 on the pop charts and number 24 on the R&B charts. As soon as they finished, the Temptations responded by singing the Tops' hit,  Baby I Need Your Loving 2  . The rap group Run-D.M.C. re-worked and sampled Papa Was A Rollin' Stone for their song Papa Crazy, off their 1988 album Tougher Than Leather.
The Temptations who went into the studio in the summer of 1972 to record Papa Was a Rollin' Stone were a very different group than the one that released My Girl just seven years earlier.David Ruffin had long departed and was replaced by Dennis Edwards.sychedelic soul was all over the radio, but Motown was keeping up with the times and producers Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong wrote a stupefyingly funky song about an absentee father. Contrary to widespread belief, Dennis Edwards' father didn't die on the third of September; he died on the third of October.
