Perspective on Family Leave

I agree whole heartedly with the entire paper. As a single mother and a daughter of two elderly parents with cancer, I cannot begin to tell you the stress I am consistently under. To add to these matters, my significant other passed away from cancer a little over 2 months ago.

Having taken time away from my job due to my mother having gone into a chemo induced choma, then blood clot in her lungs, as well as my significant other enduring the hardships of gastric cancer, I am currently under scrutiny for time out. Yet, I only took the time for emergent matters.

Those of us who are dealing with family medical matters as well as being sick parents have no support in any respect.

I can only hope that NJ adopts some kind of support to us soon or I will be the next person who is sick from all the stressors.
