My DM died on Wednesday. It's been a very very tough six months with me juggling travelling up there every week or two weeks (staying longer toward the end) with a very demanding job and a young family at home. It's also been quite traumatic toward the end and I feel emotionally, physically and mentally exhausted. I have a week of annual leave remaining which I'm going to take next week but that will be swallowed up with travelling back home to clear the house and sort funeral etc...Then the following week is the funeral and that will be two nights up at home due to the travel distance. I have quite a senior role and certainly don't think work will actively encourage me to take the amount of time that I feel I need in order to recover from this. Would I be unreasonable to get signed off for two weeks in order to give me one clear week to just 'be' and not have to arrange or organise or sort anything?
