Meredith~ I can only begin to imagine the pure frustration and anger you must be feeling at such a unfairness in our world which harbors little compasion for women's healthy problems like Endo..Men just wont understand a disease they will never have and that is one cruel reality.. husbands find compasion but male co workers do not have to and that stinks..Of course there are ways to fight to get the job back depending what length you want to go to but you still face the reality of no compasion and I guess you face that one everywhere in every company and in every job..Perhaps it's been it's own blessing in disguise and you just do not see it yet. Remember the door never slams shut without forcing another one open.. Maybe it's hard to face and aggrivating but maybe it's leading to bigger better things in your future. I know I think I try to tell myself these lines everytime something happens that about rips me in two but things do have a way of changing for the worse to allow bigger better things walz into my life. It's just so darn hard to see it when the bruises still hurt..It's never fair to hav bad things happen at Christmas I know we had a death in our Family( my uncle) this yr just days before Christmas and I was saying the same thing why before Christmas do these things have to happen. Holidays are so stressful as it is and then to face undue hardships and more stress just doesn't seem right..Just keep the faith that bigger brighter things are soon to come into your life and enjoy the holiday with those you love what better time then to have family around you when you want to hit people LOL.. Don't we all have that one Jerk in the family we'd love to hit. LOL I'm just kidding.. Depending upon where you live have you looked up into on the FMLA and ADA. Wonderful info online about it just look it up maybe something there can help that is if you are in the US.. Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New year hugs Sudsey
