Ask HN: As a caregiver how to achieve things
2 by dumy55 | 0 comments on Hacker News.
I am in mid 30's and last year my partner was diagnosed with a rare life threatening disease. Everything turned upside down, currently things are holding up fine..But I am stuck. As a immigrant in US I am worried about possible medical bills would like to accumulate some money, but feel my hands are tied. 1. My partner can't possibly work. 2. Changing to high paying job requires quite a effort and because of my Job and caregiver duties I don't have much time left to prepare for interviews 3. I would not be eligible for FLMA in the first year of employment, so not sure if it's a wise decision to change a job. Asking for suggestions to manage this phase and how to navigate this.
