You guys were busy when I was trying to sleep!
Heres my introduction:
My name is Dorian Esquivel, but everyone calls me Dori. I am 42, will be 43 in August. I am married to a great guy named Tony for 20 years, although we've been together for 25. I've always known he was a good guy, but these last two months he has been my rock. He was so good when I was in the hospital. He stayed the whole time, and helped me. He has been so supportive with my back problems as well. Even though I haven't been paid in 5 weeks, he reassures me that it will all work out! I love him to death! We have three adult children who are all living at home. My son is 22, and the girls are 20 and 18. We also have four dogs; 2 Yorkie-Silkies, a Corgi mix and a Beagle mix. I am "grandma".
I have worked for our local hospital for 23 years, mostly as a CNA. The last three have been as a receptionist/therapist helper in the rehab dept. I went there for easier work for my back. As of July 1st, I will be termed if I can't go back, able to do my full job duties, which will never happen now. I am ok with this, as I now need to take care of me and get better.
I love my family to death, am a HUGE Packers (and Clay Matthews) fan, which you will find out come football season, and I truely appreciate the friends I have made here. It is so nice to vent to people since I am not working! That's me! Nice to meet you all.
