The second job I had I became ill with bronchitis and was put on an extra strong anti-biotic that made me feel even worse both physically and mentally. Turned out I had an allergic reaction to the medication in combination with my regular medications which caused a manic episode (not at work). I was later hospitalized. I left this second job with only an hours notice due to my health going down hill. I did send a lengthy letter thanking them for the experiences they gave me...etc and bought children's books and toys for the centre...my way of saying I am sorry and ashamed at how I resigned.
I am worried that I may get poor references/comments from my former employers. Hindering my chances of getting a job.

The majority of companies will not contact your references unless they have decided to hire you based on your merits and credentials.
