I just had to send my husband away in an ambulance. I’m not allowed to go with him or even go to the hospital. I don’t know what to do. I can’t even be there for my husband.

I imagine it’s a horrible and helpless feeling. Try to remember that he’s headed to a hospital to get professional care. It’s likely he is in very good and capable hands. It’s a heartbreaking situation - take good care of yourself. 💛

How sick is he, can you call him? Usually nurses and physicians are very good about calling with updates. If that doesn't happen, and that's rare, then call the patient advocate at the hospital and demand updates. Remember he is in good hands. He is in the best place to get help. Stay strong.

During the pandemic I dove into my self care (found a therapist, learned I was having seizures and got on meds for that). My journey has been difficult and not pretty to watch. Somewhere along the line I feel like my fiancé saw too much. I no longer feel like romantic parters and instead feel like we have a “caretaker/patient” type relationship. I don’t feel sexy or attractive anymore. I talked to him about this and he feels bad. But I feel guilty for bringing it up. Anyone else had this issue?

UK market is open only for niche skillsets ( Data engineer + analytics). Firms aren't interested in sponsoring rest all skill sets, as they can be filled internally. They have limited quota every year, and are very choosy when it comes to allocation. Preference is first given to EU nationals and then Asians during shortlist stage.

Referral works, but the person who is referring you should have enough clout in the organization to present your profile!
