[quote=Anonymous][quote] My husband and kids aren’t thrilled either, though they haven’t accused me of (indirectly) causing our dog to die. My kids do say they will never go into medicine, so perhaps one positive thing has come out of it? [/quote] This would concern me. Who cares what your mom and her friends and your cousin say. But these are the people who are directly affected. I think you should sit down and have a heart-to-heart with your DH about your family’s lifestyle. Like, maybe he ramps up and you ramp down a bit (not necessarily PT, but something easier). Or maybe you do go PT (my sister is a PT doctor, and while she does complain about the longer-than-expected hours, she throughly relishes her 2 weekdays off because she has an SN child). Or maybe you hire more help around the house to lighten everyone’s load. Or maybe everything is 100% fine and you don’t need to make any changes whatsoever.[/quote]
