Have there ever been times when your work and family conflicted? What happens when you are forced to choose? Tell us what you have done when it was urgently important for you to spend time with a family member - and getting time off work seemed impossible.

Examples:

• "After his stroke, my father can't get himself to his physical therapy appointments."
• "After my 83-year-old mom broke her hip, it was either me at home or the nursing home."
• "It tears me apart to leave my 8-week-old daughter with a stranger all day."
• "My 10-year-old son can't take himself to dialysis."
• "My wife needs someone to take her to chemotherapy."
