Starting mid-May I will again be among the ranks of the employed . I haven't been able to work and be in moderatly good health at the same time for many years...
After transplant they told me to go slow and not push working or anything until mind and body had caught up with the other. I know feel that they have caught up. Well, almost anyway . It took me a while to get my cool cardiologist sold on the idea -- he has this very weird notion that I will overdo (don't understand from where he got that LOL . Eventually (yesterday) we agreed to a VERY modest start at first, 6 hrs per week. By summer it will most likely have been increased with several hours.
He does not think, however, that I will ever be able to work fulltime ever again; 8 years with a heartcondition does take its toll. To be honest, I don't mind much since it gives me time to do other things that my heart condition prevented me from doing prior to transplant.
The job? I'll be a liaison/qualified caseworker working within our socialinsurance administration with disability compensation. I've done it before as an intern when I was still at university and immediately after graduation. Feels great to get stuff off the ground .
My best to all,
