[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The thing is, you might not be able to return.  That's the sticking point.

Unless they are near end of life, would a year really enable you to finish up your caregiving?  They will only get sicker, weaker, and more in need of help as time wears on.[/quote]

Why would I not be able to return?  I have status and would not expect to go back to my current agency, but my job is one that tends to have a low rate of unemployment.  True, I can't say a year would cover it precisely, but one is near end of life, yes.  Private industry is also a possibility, I have experience other than Fed.  Anyway: I guess what I'm looking for is hearing from other people who finally made the decision to take time out of career for caregiving so I can see what bases need to be covered, in addition to my specific question about COBRA. Thank you to the pp who answered that.[/quote]

Well, good luck if all you want is people telling you to go for it.  Some of us have learned that hard way that things often don't work out the way you hope.  [/quote]
