I am a sad, sad little theta
This morning I sent a letter to my chapter president to read asking the chapter to grant me inactive status. I've felt awful all day. I just feel empty. Have any of you ladies had experiance with this?
A little bit of back story: I initiated into theta in PC '03 at the eta theta chapter at UCF. Since then I have taken three amazing little sisters (hi steph!) and have one beautiful and talented grandlittle. This past fall I was slated for the position of convention awards, something that I took to be a huge honor. Just the thought that my sisters had even considered me to make sure they were represented at convention means so much to me. I was so very proud.
In Feb. I broke my back in an auto accident and since then it's been all I could do to keep my head above water and keep going to classes. It's killing me to ask my chapter for inactivity, but I just can't keep up. I hate giving up my office too, it's something my sisters entrusted me with and I feel like I've let them down. It is my hope that I can reactivate in the spring (after back surgery in the winter...if I can...) if I can walk again.
Have any of you been through this (or something like it, or had a sister go medical and then come back)?any thoughts?
