I went ahead and applied for FMLA today. Neither my HR department nor my supervisor made any mention of this option so thank you all for recommending it. I will start with this route and go from there.

We live in Washington but our car is through Oregon Community Credit Union. We love them and the experience we've had the last 2 years!

I will go ahead and look into this. I was worried about jumping ship and not having enough resources after the matter. Thank you very much!

The website says if you voluntarily leave for medial reasons you can apply but I just am not certain to what extent.

For context, I would be leaving on my own terms. I had a conversation with my employer to see if they could accommodate my child's health risks and they cannot. So I went to their Primary Care Physician and they said my child is too young to be diagnosed but they wrote me a letter stating that the condition they believe it to be will continually and greatly affect him.

My plan is to continue to find work, preferably something at home or that can accommodate his health. I'd ideally like to be able to claim unemployment until I can find something because in the meantime, I still need to take care of him but I'm simultaneously missing work and pay and it becomes a downward spiral. If that makes sense.
