We're Unemployed!
Well a great day, turned a little bit bittersweet! Todo had his meeting with the Human Resources lady and the Operations Manager when he got back to the yard today. He was asked to voluntarily resign until he's off of the medication. Because it is illegal for them to employ anyone who is on that specific medication. The Human Resources lady felt really bad about having to ask him to resign, she said, "You don't know me, (she's new) but I know you well, I've poured over all your files and you're a wonderful driver and WE WANT YOU BACK!" It's tough, but we do understand that they can't do something that's illegal. When Todo was hired in 2004, the state was still deciding wether or not to make it illegal to drive on a CDL with this medication. And since then it has become illegal. So it's out of our hands and Todo's employers hands. Which in the long run it's going to be better this way, because we were working on getting the funds to get him through the 7 day detox anyway and now we just have to get more serious about it and get it here so we can go up to the clinic. We're hoping and praying my Grandparents will help us out. Please Pray for us that we'll be able to get the funds! And believe me, if I could sue the Dr that got him on this stuff to begin with, I would! But it's been 4 years and after 3 years, our attorney said they can't do anything about it. It seems so unfair that a Dr could so such a criminal act against a patient and act as if it was totally okay and normal! GRRRR....... I'm still trying to see anything good in this that I can!
The one good thing is, that he could be back to work within the month! If we can get the money to go through the antisthesia detox as soon as next week, it will only take 7 days and he'll be free and clear and back to work! They also told him that he will not loose any seniority and they won't even think twice about hiring him back. They all want him back! That's so comforting to know that he has job security once he can go back to work!
So here's my plea! PRAY FOR US! |
You are awesome and loving. You know what is best for this family. I lift Todo up to you and ask for your intervention. Please provide the needed money or heal him miraculously. Lord, help this family to forgive this abusive doctor and to move forward in faith. Help the detox time go easily so that Todo can be back at work quickly. In Jesus' name. Amen.
