Okay, here goes... I am recently jobless, and will probably start my new job on Monday. My dilema is this: My Daughter, who lives in another state, is about to give birth to her (and my first grandbaby) child. I feel as a mother i need to be there for her, but in respect to the child living with me, I need to work. I want so bad to go be with her at this time in her life. Yet things tie me here, like being the breadwinner. I dont know what to do.
Her doctor made me feel bad, asking her if I was still coming out, she said no, and he told her that its something thats kind of important, she will need the help.
I have cried a lot of tears over this. I want so bad to be there for her, but fear I cant. I hate the feeling of letting my kids down. I just dont know what to do.
I have money saved, i can afford the trip, but what if the jobs dont pour in when i come back? ( i have a good chance at a great job, something in my training, finally)
