another voiceI wrote a letter to the Olympic committee after a thread on here about that once. There were 8 people with CAH in the Olympics in Atlanta. You would think that because of the drugs etc. they, of all entitities, would not want to accept CAH participants. But they do, and they win. With any medical issue there are people, like you said, that will treat you differently. Overweight people get treated differently in almost all the venues you mentioned. We all pay taxes that go to things we don’t like versus ones we agree with but that is a totally different issue.
I have worked for the same place for 13 years. My daughter was born 2 years ago. I told them I was going to have to leave because I couldn’t leave my CAH daughter in day-care. Rather than let me go, they asked me if I would stay and work from home and let me do what I needed to do at the office at night when my husband had come home to watch our daughter. Most people aren’t that lucky, I know. But I can assume that this particular employer ( A National Association - not a small family-owned business) wouldn’t discriminate. Qualifications and experience are one thing. But a person with a medical condition probably would stay longer once they found a good job - so that would actually be to their benefit as long as the job was done well once they were in it.
