[quote=Anonymous]Hi I work part-time at where I used to work before quitting after receiving the diagnosis. They were willing to make a part-time position for me, because of my good past performance and also my boss is just a nice guy. I work at a local university in the area -- it's great because staff schedules are flexible during semester breaks which line up nicely to K-12 school year breaks. I think literally all my income goes to childcare (my husband's salary covers other expenses) but I think it's worth it -- because it keeps me employable. Tomorrow, if my husband lost his job, I feel confident about my ability to get a full-time job. In fact, I think that switch might be necessary regardless once my son hits puberty and needs someone larger and stronger than me to help him through his day. I also kinda enjoy work, it's like my "break."[/quote]
