Chronic health condition and working abroad
Posted: 16 Jun 2008, 09:32
Hi Lucy,
I am on the cusp on going to get my Celta so as to teach abroad, which I have been wanting to do for some years. I now however realize that my condition, as asymptomatic as it may be, could be a problem. I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis a little over a year ago and have been getting paid treatments as the subject of a medical study. Given that I am otherwise in perfect health, and still fairly young (33), I rarely consider this as a barrier to my life goals.
How much of a problem do you think this will be? Should I just pull out now and change my life plans altogether?
Thanks a ton,
