[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m wondering about all these people saying “I have leave for appointments”—I can take whatever leave I want but I still have the same work.  So if I take 2 hours off for a medical appointment, that just means 2 hours less sleep sometime that week.  
And the kids do have so many more appointments hecause they are injury prone and illness prone — someone breaks something and that’s like a million follow up appointments.  And braces!  God the appointments for braces!

The fact that most doctors offices don’t answer calls during lunch is also challenging.  I do need to be better about taking advantage of online scheduling since the only free time I have is usually 9-12.

FWIW, I don’t think it’s a mom thing because my husband is way worse that I am.  I at least intend to get a colonoscopy— I don’t think he ever will.  [/quote]
On days where you have an appointment, you could start work a little early, work through your lunch, and then also work a little bit late to make up the time. Just schedule one screening a month and you can make it happen. I promise that will be way easier to schedule than chemo. [/quote]
