[quote=Anonymous]I know several people who didn’t share their cancer diagnosis with colleagues. They continued to show up for work until the end. One died at home (didn’t show up for work, so we checked), others worked until going into hospice. I’m not saying others should do the same. Work through HR to get the support you need. Most people need the paycheck and insurance, so they continue to work. But don’t complain and seek support when the issue is you married a deadbeat and parenting is hard. Why? Because parenting and working FT is hard for everyone. Figure out how to get more help if you need it, but don’t bring your drama to work. Where are your parents? Can they help? Your in-laws? Do you have any divorced friends who might be interested in sharing a house and helping each other out? Remember the old tv show Kate and Allie? I know two divorced women who went that route and it worked well: saved money and helped with the kids. Grandparents stepped up, too. [/quote]
