Hi everyone, I have been signed off from work since December due to stress and anxiety from looking after my husband who has terminal stomach cancer. My work place have been good so far but now they are asking when I plan to return to work and I have to go in for a meeting next month. I don't know what to do? Do I give up work and become his full time carer and ifso and idea how I go about this. Any help will be appreciated thank you x
Hi Tobydog
This sounds like a very difficult decision to make so can I suggest that you also post this in the carers only group, which I can see you've joined, as you'll then connect directly with others who may also have faced this decision.
Wishing you all the best with whatever you decide to so.
