We were so close to closing the doors on our LD life. 1 1/2 weeks and I was going to make the move to Florida. Then BAM; The world turns upside down. My grandmother gets terribly sick and is diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer (the 5th person in my family to have cancer; we've lost 3, including my father). My grandmother is the light in our family and I knew I couldn't leave now.
I am a registered nurse, so I decided to stay here to care for her. I'm managing her medications and giving her shots. However, my heart was ripped apart. After 10 years, we were going to close the distance and now it has been pushed back further. I found out today that I was granted my RN license in Florida that I applied for AFTER I gained my license in my home state (which was about a month ago). I broke down crying. There was so much that had been done and things checked off the list to finally make the move. Being granted my RN license in Florida felt like a kick in the gut.
I'm scrambling around trying to get a RN job in my home state. I had an opportunity and the guy claimed he'd love to have me on the team, he loved my interview, and that I'd be hearing from their human resources for an offer. Something has to go right, right?!
I get an email this morning saying I was no longer considered for the position. I was deflated. I don't understand what went wrong. Should I call and ask why? The nurse manager said that he definitely wanted me on his team...and I get this email. I plan to call...what could have happened?
My SO has become hesitant about moving out here to be with me while all of this goes down and I don't know why. Everything has become completely chaotic and I feel like I'm losing my mind. I felt like I could turn to my LFAD family and help get this out. I've always been one to keep pushing the family and I forward and have always tried to keep the positivity. I'm a major "silver-lining" person. I've had to learn how to do that because we've been knocked down with many sad, terrible things in my life before. Now, I feel like it's hard to put one foot in front of the other and I rather just stay in bed forever...
