Gwen, I'm so sorry to hear about your shoulder, and how you are feeling generally. I have dipped in and out of your threads in recent months and always thought what a lovely woman you sound to be.
I hope your employer comes through for you. No-one should lose their job because they broke a bone in my view. Do they have an absence policy you could look at to see if their approach is in line with that? Is it one person in particular that isn't sympathetic?
I'm glad your guilt is gone, and in terms of your H it may be an idea to put him firmly on the very back burner whilst you heal and look after yourself. I'm sorry his behaviour wasn't better - at least when things like that happen - they do help us move forwards a little more....though it isn't nice to go through it.
Lovely that your D's are so supportive and I'm sure they will be looking out for Mum in coming weeks. Do rest up and take care of yourself.
