Such is life…

Vent/Rant

I am on the verge of losing my job… which, I’ve expected to happen a lot sooner. I was recently diagnosed with POTS with possible connective tissue disorder. I get sick a lot. Recently I was sick for an entire month and lost 10lb. I have ADA paperwork filed. But I could tell my job has been waiting to find things to get me out of there. Today they suspended me. Their reason was being tardy a couple of times (they said which had nothing to do with my medical condition) and also having to leave work early once because my daughter was sick and needed picked up… it really sucks. I do give what I can. Which isn’t a lot. But I make sure whatever they give me to work on that it gets done. I just feel sad. Defeated. I already felt depressed given how much my life has changed… and this was the icing on the cake. I have 3 kids to raise… and idk what to do.
