I don't know what to do.
Becasue I had a car crash last weeek, because I was diabeticallly low and because an ambulance needed to be called.
Prof phoned me from Kings. She has been my diabetic consultant for the last 5 years. No more driving for me. Atleast for 3 months.
I did catch the train home last week with ds, it took 3 hours with 3 changes. It normally takes me 20 mins to drive to wrok.
Prof said she would sign me of sick if required.
Dh has asked my neighbour and he has agreed to take me and collect me on my 2.5 days.
Or should I just say stuff it, accept being signed off, during the next few lovely summer months. Enjoy spending time with ds, at this special time. I will get bigger and more uncomfortable. My diabetes may go to pot later.
I have been at my firm for over 2 years. They pay 3 motnhs full and 3 months half sick pay, at their descretion.
I am only 19 weeks now. Could they not pay me? Make me start my mat leave early. Could they argue that the diabetes is non pregnancy/pregnancy related. Plus there is nothing actually wrong with me. It is only due to the fact that gettting to work is so very stressful, thus I could argue that that in itself would make my diabetes go beserk.
I have just started a new ccounts job. VERY VERY well paid. For one or two afternoons a week. Just down the road. I could continue with this job.
