emergency leave for ALS parent
Posted on
My Dad has ALS. He's been deteriorating pretty quickly and my mom is all by herself taking care of him and its becoming really hard on her. I have been reading up on the emergency leave regulations (600-8-10) to try and see what my options are, but it's kind of confusing so I was hoping to find some help here.
I have been using almost all of my leave to go home and be with him so I have very little chargeable leave atm. If I have 3 available leave days and my commander authorizes 30 days of emergency will I have -27 days on my LES that I have to make up through the year?
Also is this even eligible for emergency leave? for most soldiers it seems to be used for a sudden death or illness complication, but ALS is a slow burn and my mom just needs help taking care of my dad who's becoming more and more dependent on her. Any guidance would be helpful, thanks.
