I'm sorry that I dont know your name. Hindsight is 20/20 right. I

had to find out the hard way too. I didn't hear your story, sorry

again, but what happened thursday? If you dont mind me asking. I

can understand how an employer needs to know that the staff will

show up and not call in sick. Its not like we want to be sick

though. Sometimes the way some of the people have spoken to me they

must think I am on a Roman holiday. Trust me, If I could choose

between working in my profession and having this, work would have me

in a heartbeat.

My names is and I live in SC. Where do you live? YOu

certainly did come to the right place for pancreatitis. These

people on here are the most wonderful people I have ever had the

priviledge to call my friends. I hate the think about what might

have happened had I not received all the love and support here.
