Time off

Wish me luck, I am asking for the time off this morning. I think I am more afraid they will say NO than I am of the surgery!

    I'm gettin surgery through kaiser ca as well. Where are you located? I still have to do the 12 weeks of options classes first though.

    Hi KB88,

    I'm in Los Angeles and will be having my surgery at Kaiser West L.A. hopefully before the end of the year. Today is week 11 out of 12 in the Options classes...almost there! Which location will you be taking your Options classes at?

    Asking for time will no longer be an issue for me! I was laid off yesterday!

    Oh no! I hope that it doesn't have an impact on your surgery.

    Sorry to hear about that, I hope it doesn’t affect your surgery plans.

    I returned to work on day four, the first three days were a little though but it gets easier once they removed my drain.
