Coming back after serious illness
A few months back I was diagnosed with colon cancer. I have been grounded since and am doing treatment for another few months. Prognosis is good, thankfully. Of course, I hope to return to life as normal when all this is done. I have been flying 135 for awhile and am hoping to move to a charter or airline in a year or so. Question is how to explain this in an interview. I can imagine a scan of my logbook will bring the question of "why didn't you fly for 8 months while empoyed?" My answer: ?. Seems like disclosing a this kind of medical condition would be a deal breaker. Would it suffice to say "had to take a personal LOA" and shut my mouth. Love to hear any thoughts people might have. Thanks in advance....
