    Surgery
    Hoping for quick, successful surgery for you, and also that the doctor's note works with your employer.

    I am so sorry your work is not treating you very well. It makes things so much more stressful than they need to be. Let us know the date. (((HUGS))) and prayers.

    FMLA
    I will be praying for a succesful surgery and a very speedy recovery. We will all be with you holding your hand and praying. I am so sorry that your job is giving you a hard time. Have you filled out FMLA paperwork? If so, they have to hold your job for 12 weeks and if you go over that 12 weeks your onc can fill out paperwork to get around that too.

    Good luck with surgery and as soon as you find out your date let us know.

    Hugs,

    Dawne
