So, how does one do it? Work and be Mom of the Medically Fragile?
I need to know.
I have a job interview. For a real, big girl job. In my field. At a large hospital. In a position that I, a few years ago, could have only dreamed about.
I don’t really want to work full time. But, the bills accrued by having a SN kid…
astronomical.
(I really can’t expect my husband to carry all that on himself)
I’m torn in so many ways. On one hand, I want to work and make the world of nursing a better place. I want patients to feel loved and be treated holistically. Yet I also want to make sure that my family has what they need. I have babysitting lined up in the form of my gal pal.That’s a God-send.
I’m terrified.
So tell me…do you work? How does it work for you? Do you carry much guilt? How do you do it?
I’m so torn…
