I don’t know if this doctor had the employee’s best interests at heart or not. But, this story isn’t unusual at all.
Two of my in-laws were fired while fighting cancer. They both were hard workers.
My SIL worked many years for a major company, and she had life insurance through that job. Her bosses knew she had cancer because she’d been fighting it for a long time while continuing to work.
One day they fired her because she didn’t call in for a couple of days. Why didn’t she call in? Well... she didn’t call in because she was too busy dying in the hospital to make a call. It really makes you wonder about some employers.
