I just wanted to say thank you to everyone, the outpouring of love and support was really staggering and I'm sorry I could not respond to everyone. I did end up reaching out to my union who informed me of a state paid leave program, separate from federal FMLA, that only requires you have been working. Nothing about being in a job for a year to qualify. So I will be getting the rest of the school year at 60% pay and my job/health insurance will be protected. Thank you all again and hug your kiddos a little tighter tonight for me. submitted by /u/TheEndOfAllThings23 [link] [comments]
