[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 364951, member: 1233"] You feel a need to be there because your family has several members with serious chronic mental illnesses. medication changes are stressful when only 1 member of the family is in crisis. You have far more than that on your hands. As long as it will be classified FMLA then it is exactly what that is for. Have you got the FMLA already set up and approved? The rules can be really tricky. Years and years ago I had a back injury and had to take time off. HR told me the wrong info (part of their internal policies), my boss kept calling and calling to pressure me back to work before the doctor okayed it, and I ended up almost getting fired because they said I didn't qualify (even though the Dept of Labor said it did the company would not accept it!). It was a nightmare. If it is already set up or you have it arranged then I would go for it. Get the psychiatrist to give you a letter saying you need to be around on the weekends due to the complicated nature of medication changes and several ill family members. I hope this helps. I would be FURIOUS about the patches being taken off. You have more patience than I! [/QUOTE]
