Thanks Mandy. I had 6 months chemo, 33 radiotherapy sessions as well as 12 months of herceptin. Somehow I managed to work part time throughout the process. It's disgusting that people can treat us so poorly. As you say, as if cancer is not enough. I got a part time job 3 weeks after getting the sack. My new job is not a management position and is not paid anywhere near what I was on but it's a job, they are supportive of my need to take time off for appointments and it is literally 2 minutes drive from home. So for the moment, it is serving it's purpose well. I admit to struggling to let go of the resentment that I feel towards my previous employer and the fact they they have gotten off Scott free. Me on the other hand have sufferred greatly emotionally and financially. It is just so wrong. It gives me hope when I hear of others standing up for themselves. Take care. Karen
