Work has been really good. I did get it at work so they kind of know that they have to help me out and they have been very helpful. I took off almost three months in recovering which was nice and I was being paid for that which is good. And this modified work plan where it’s gradual, it’s at my own pace, has been very helpful in me getting back … Managing work with this has been a bit of a challenge because my job is so physical. I’ve had modified work so I don’t do what I used to do but I am still at work. I’m gradually increasing my hours. So if you’re able to, I would recommend trying to maintain it because work has been a great way to get my mind off of things. You know, I’m at work I’m doing my job I’m not sitting at home thinking about it.
