Seems the universe had other ideas it was the best thing for me and i learnt a valuable lesson for myself finally. Never will i put work above myself 2yrs later i still dont. Finally learnt to put me first above everything to nurture me first time in my life. Things just worked out and lucky i found 1 of my supers had inbuilt income protection but it wasnt until 4 months after treatment. Im back to work tomorrow on 3 days after 12 weeks off from surgery but im looking forward to seeing my Autistic kids. I have a boy who's been crossing the dates off til I teturn which melts my heart. So do what you feel you can and want...health first.. you first x Melinda
