Going back to Work

I had 7 months off work with my surgeries and treatment and returned to the same company but a different role.

I work for a large corporate in a managerial role and decided I no longer wanted to manage staff.

When I returned to work I eased back in part-time working short days 3 days a week and then gradually adding hours and then days.

I know I have been extremely fortunate, that my company has supported me througout my illness and supported my request for change.

So yes I have had a change of jobs but still within the same company and to be honest it was hard returning to work. I was exhausted all the time, I had medical appointments still to be managed and people all wanted to know what was happening to me.

So here I am after returning in October 2013 loving my new role and not so tired anymore. I do manage my hours much better than I did previously and I make sure I get plenty of down time. Thats easy as my children are grown so it just my husband and I.

I wish you luck with finding the right path for yourself.
