[QUOTE="Almostdone, post: 2581464, member: 66056"] One more try. The wedding thing might be pushing it a bit but when you are on FMLA you make the call, you are telling UPS when you are taking time off My understanding of FMLA is either you are the patient or the caregiver. Emotional support is a huge part of being a caregiver. This is not my opinion but the opinion of the doctor. The doctor fills out the paper work and tells UPS what you will be taking time off for. The day you call for FMLA you are given a case number which make you eligible and then you give the forms for the doctor to fill out. I have used it for this reason. My wife had stage 3 breast cancer and since i'm a truck driver and not a doctor a lot of what I did was support. One example is that I did not go to all the chemos because I had a lot of help from family and friends, but we all went to the last one for a celebration afterwards. My management team could not have been more supportive during treatment so I did not abuse the FMLA. I would never judge anyone on when they should take time off to care for a loved one. Everything we read on the internet is true. Did you also read on the US DOL website that UPS must have all this information posted for everyone to see? [/QUOTE]
