I would like all who responded to my thread regarding my returning to the working world.
I really got some great feedback and intend to use them. I guess the stigma frightened me more than anything else. But as I stated I work in a pharmacy and have always had respect for anone who was in the position that I am in, even more so NOW!
I am just so scared that I will not be able to maintain my pace and having to carry my load. I know that the staminia I once had is gone and therefore I would be duing more harm than good to myself if I tried to be something I once was.
The meds have helped but I know I have a long way to go. My life as I knew it is upside down with the death of my husband, the mono, and now with all the other things tacked on, I just want to function instead of exist.
There are those who are so judgemental and so quick to advise but don't know what the heck they are talking about until they have been there and that is the motto I am going to use!!!
Anyway thank you all who have replied and I will keep you posted, perhaps I can pick up some pointers and pass them along!

My response to you Donsky is this, I admire your work ethic. I think the fact that you care so much about holding up your end of things, fulfilling your duties, being an asset to the pharmacy and the people you work with speaks volumes. I don't think you have as much to worry about as you think you do. I see someone who will go back to being a valuable member of a team. And these ppl, being in the medical field, so to speak, ought to have some insight into MI than most layman, if you know what I mean.

But the other side to this is that you have plenty of ppl here to support you, encourage you and give you the boost you need when things might get rough.

Give yourself a little more credit. You deserve it.
TgrsPurr. xoxo

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
