Just wondered if anyone could answer a couple of questions for me please? I've never seen the rules and regulations re: SW so I couldn't really answer this question.
A friend I've made at SW, who has been in remission from Cancer, went awhile ago for her 5 year checkup, and it was discovered that it had come back. After an operation, she had to go for Radiotherapy, which apart from making her feel dreadful, fell on our WI day. Our counsellor has made her use her "holiday" days for this (totally out of order IMO) Now our next WI day, is Boxing day so obviously our venue isn't open and it's been arranged elsewhere for the Friday, (which I myself can't make either)and my friend can't make the next 2, the first she won't even be in the area on the Friday, the second she has a hospital appointment. She informed our counsellor who told her she'd have to take 2 holiday days for this...but she has none left, so has been told she has to pay.
I don't understand this at all......if I can't make group because the place is closed and it falls on a bank holiday and the counsellor changes the day and venue, I don't see that I should have to pay because I have other committments for that day, and my friend being made to pay when she has to go to the hospital for life saving treatment, to me is absolutely ludicrous.
If anyone could tell me the actual rules and regs: concerning this, we'd both be grateful, thank you x
