Thanks for the thoughts and prayers everyone. I can really feel them! Just an update on the situation. I just got off the phone with my boss. He does not know if he can sign up for me taking a personal leave for 6 weeks "for the good of the business". He will mull it over on the 4th and circle back with me on Thursday. If he does not allow me to, I feel I have no choice but to give my 2 weeks notice as keeping my family is more important than contributing to a couple penny per share result for the stockholders. If I am forced to take the second option, I will at least be rehirable. I have 17 plus years invested with this company and hope they can be sensitive enough to let me take care of things. Therefore, I could be on a plane as early as Monday/Tuesday of next week or as late as mid-month. Either way, I am going. My wonderful father-in-law is flipping the bill for my 6 week stay. We talked yesterday prior to my post and he told me that he considers me "indispensible as a son, husband to my wife and father to those beautiful boys." Wow. I just bursted into tears at that point. I felt important for a change. I did not mean to bring my drama here, but I believe in the power of prayer and the more the merrier. Thanks again and more to come.
