"I am so happy to be a part of the MDJunction family! Where I used to be alone, I now have friends whom inspire me, comfort me, support me, and do not judge me. My new life began October 17, 2008. I weighed in with severe depression, social anxiety disorder and avoidant personality disorder. I was born with complications but I am fighting for my life and I will survive!!" (apieceofwork)

 Tara,

So sorry to hear about you having to go to the hospital and the pain and the poor experience. It is a shame that people can't mind their own business. What difference does it make who takes you to the hospital. Have you thought about having your husband file for Family Leave Medical Act. My husband had to do this to protect his job. It is very easy to do.

Anyway, I hope you are feeling better so,

I will pray a special prayer for you,

Your friend Sandi
