<prompt> Human: A little background info. My wife is a stay at home mom of our one month old baby and I work outside of the home. I earn about 70k and have less than 20k in savings. Our newborn had complications at birth and was in the hospital for 2 weeks in the nicu. We are waiting on the bills to come in still. I have going through one of the more severe clinical boughts of depression and anxiety of my life right now. Im going to be fired from missing work too much due to helping with the baby and my own mental health issues. I understand why Im going to be fired quite frankly and dont think I have grounds to push back. My reputation to per from and leave my small team at work is now gone. I am terrified and feel completely paralyzed. What little savings we have will quickly be eaten up by medical and normal bills. Any advice from others who have been in similar situations is much appreciate. Thanks in advance.  <response>: Well, 3 years ago I was in a similar position. I had 3 children, one of which was a newborn and I was informed I would be losing my job in 3 weeks. I then proceed to die. Not kidding, was given last rites by the first available clergy person at the hospital I was in. Luckily I survived enough to rack up a few hundred thousand in medical bills while I was unemployed. Im still working through that today. So my advice is to not die and youll be doing better than I was. Good luck to you sir.
