I began to be treated for cancer about a year ago. My doctor did not want me to work extended periods of time or weekends and sent a letter stating that, which HR was informed of. Now, a year later, they asked for more information from my doctor, but he is busy and hasn't provided it yet. HR is threatening my job, and I can't make the doctor go faster. What can I do to protect my job?
