K, so, how to start this...
In July, 2003, I recieved a surgery to implant an LVAD into my chest, (Left Ventricle Assist Device). They used a blood thinner , Heparin, that I was allergic to, i threw a few clots, and BAm, stroke. On September 22, 2003, I recieved a Heart Transplant at Medical City Dallas Hospital. The donor was a 15 yr old girl. The next Easter I found out that I had contracted non-Hodgkin's Type B lymphoma, cancer.
I told you that story to tell you this story. I was recently admitted to the same dallas hospital because of some chest pains I had. Turns out i had CHF, or Congenitive Heart Failure. Because I was in the hospital, Of course I couldn't go to work. I work at Lowe's as a cashier whilst I go to school. Well, when I was admitted, my father called and told my direct manager that I was in the hospital, and wouldn't be able to come in, 'til further notice.
I recently called them, 'cause I just got out of the hospital, and They told me since I had 6, "no call, no shows" That my status showed that I quit, and was therefor terminated.
...
I smell a lawsuit. Equal opportunity employer anybody? Needless to say, I'm pretty pissed, I'll mull it over tonight, and call some legal advice in the morn.
