I work for a healthcare company, Kaiser Permanente. Ive been very lucky to have been employed for 17 years now. I never had the chops for a high stress high pay job........instead I opted for stress free and stability. For my needs, it works perfectly having free healthcare.
My husband works for Kaiser, he is a lab technician. I have insurance through them and I LOVE IT!!! I couldn't ask for a better health team.
I am the one with CF and I too am a lab technician, I work in a hospital lab running your cbc's, urines, drug levels, sputum cultures etc. It's all I have ever wanted to do. I have an Associate's Degree and have gone back to school full time to get my Bachelor's degree. I am also a mom to 2 teens, no CF.
I can understand the work anonymous does because I decided before kids that I didn't want to bring a child into this world that would have CF. Personal choice. I never had to actually abort but that is the decision I chose.
