I returned to work with a new HR boss who congratulated me on my maternity leave and new baby??????? I've since been made redundant but have found other employment but working full time takes it toll on me. Thank you for listening.

Hi everyone, it's been a while for me since I've posted.
All has been going well kidney cancer contained however in march lymph nodes were enlarged, biopsy showed sarcoid however surgeon called last thursday to say he believes the cancer is on the move as biopsy's are similar in cells.....however no definite result of malignancies.
So I've returned to work part time after another 3 mths off with sarcoid and surgery and have only been back for 1 week and do not have an immune system, so have caught the flu from transport or work not sure......anywho.....called into work yesty and explained to my superior colleague as manager not in yet that not able to make it in due to flu....he laughed, chuckled all through my telephone call.
I have recorded this in my diary however believe I am on the list to be made redundant as I sit in a vacant position number........I was in a substantive position number before cancer however funny how management change things while away battling for your life.
This little small man, very small man I allowed to make me have a bad night sleep and doubt myself......Im trying very hard to let go of this anger.....why are people like this, i believe he is peeing in the pocket of management and following their lead....
Has anyone else experienced this humiliation or discrimination at work?
Thanks for listening.
Jules

Thanks Silly, We are keeping this between my hubby and I due other influences in family being more important than this. Anyway have to wait for biospy to make any decisions. Just wanted to blog because we are keeping it quiet with family/friends and was going just a little mad and needed to verbalize it just to make it REAL. Thanks darling and hope your family and you are in good health as can be. Jx

So hi ho, hi ho, it's off to the oncologist I go...... This is not really effecting me as it is what it is.....can I control it, no, can I eat and exercise and be healthy u bet.....anyway my cousin Jeff dropped dead on Saturday night on his sofa, he was 44, he didn't have time to blink it was that fast..... So I am living with cancer, I don't believe so I feel cancer free....live each day as yr last and love and be thankful as u will not pass this way again..... Happy days xx

Hi Silly, Thanks darling I'm fine though....I am as well as I can be and feel cancer free in myself. It's more the renal failure that is concerning me.....anyways Im finding it really hard to stay on website with a few of our favorites passing away over the last 6 weeks or so, Old hippy and Tim.....Now that I have passed my 12 month mark I am feeling more confident in myself. Keep in touch with me though and love to you and your family. I do hope your group meeting went well. Love Julesx
