Even though I'm the primary caregiver for a people, it wasn't an excuse to be dismissed
I got my shifts covered, but I have concerns
If it's a case that involves Any abuse; child, domestic, animal... No way will I be able to hear about that or look at photos. I have been off depression meds for 3 years, I don't want to go back on because of jury duty. I also don't want a panic attack to trigger a seizure. I don't want to hear or see pictures about abuse or trauma
