We were talking the other day about the job that led us here....and eventually Kent lost in 2012 due to "economics", "downsizing" whatever you want to call it.
I have battled with a thought since then, it came up again this week.
Maybe he lost his job there due to my Cancer. He was lacking sleep, worried, probably not able to focus completely on the job and coming home pretty much daily to check on me at lunch time.
This saying is true: An individual doesn't get cancer - a family does.
Kent has applied to go back to this office--due to a recent job posting. I can tell you when he was let go from this office it was like Kent and I lost more than just a job, we lost connections to friends that had become like family. We had found a little niche in the City.
So, soon, Kent is planning on meeting up with some of the men who worked there. In my heart I know things have changed there but I am hoping and praying that they rehire him, I've missed them.
I also want you to know that Kent has *never* made me feel like his job loss was my fault. It's my head that goes there. He has reassured me that he worked his hardest, handled the lack of sleep and worry. He did a great job in supporting me and the kids. I wouldn't want to have walked out 2012 with anyone else.
