But in a good way. Yesterday I went to talk to my head of department about feeling sad and stressed, he was very sweet about it and said he'd like to wave a magic wand and make it all better but realises no-one can! But he suggested some practical things, and managed to take away some work that's been hanging over my head quite badly, and also reassured me that my workload won't increase significantly next year.
However taking away my workload means of course that someone else has to do it, and to be given a hint why. The two people involved initially both knew about the miscarriage and were both very sympathetic - and then someone else came and asked was I OK, and did I want to cancel dinner on Friday? to which the answer is a resounding "definitely not"...
But keeping anything quiet at work is, er, difficult...
