I am struggling with the option of looking for other employment. I just went back to work and am finding it hard to balance everything going on in my life, plus while I was gone my job duties have changed a lot. This company was so wonderful to me while going through chemo I feel obligated to stay but am very unhappy right now. I am thinking about interviewing for other jobs and know I do not have to disclose my diagonsis or even that I am currently recieving treatment, but I feel if I don't disclose I would be entering into the job under false info. Wouldn't an employer look down on me for not disclosing info? I am proud of being a survivor but I understand what that looks like to others too. I am not in my 50's but do understand your questions and concerns. (esp. with my less than stellar pathology)
