I feel so overwhelmed right now. I'm returning to the workforce after a lengthy disability. I am not getting any phone calls/emails from prospective employers despite filling out applications and sending out résumés 2-3 times a day for nearly a month! How am I going to find work with such a gap in my employment history?
My wife's school district has chosen not to renew her contract negating her tenure. We will lose her benefits so my future job has to have a comparable benefit package. It's going to be nearly impossible to match a school teacher's union-negotiated benefits.
My mother's significant other was just diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer. He likely has 8-12 months to live. While I pray for him I am also deeply concerned for my mother. She will not only provide palliative care for him but will also have to deal with the loss. She just lost her father and took that very hard.
I've also begun to freak out over my own death! It's understandable, I guess, with all of the loss that's been gong around. But death never bothered me so it's kind of strange. I'm only 45. Life is so fragile; cherish it while you experience it.
Thanks for listening.
