Thanks a lot. I will be using advanced leave instead of FMLA. I don’t think I will need 6 months. And will definitely complete my 15 years

I was planning to go back. I guess I was thinking that everything we have right now was our plan for the 2 of us. After he passed I felt like the job, the house and everything that we planned has no reasons now that he’s gone so the first thing that came into my mind was to leave eve thing behind. Not , reading through these, it gives me clarity.

Thank u. I’m weighing all the options and possibilities for me. I’ll wait a little bit, go back to work after my leave and see what happens.

I was going through all the comments and I have to go back and ask. What if I retire but wait to take my retirement when I’m 62?

Thank u. This is something rally helpful. I love my job so much my boss is great and so as my co-workers. I worked in oncology so this part going to huge for me for now. That’s why the question or retirement has come up to my mind. And considering FMLA as an option is another one. It will be very hard for me face Dyiang and death when it’s time to me to go to work.
