      I’d find it extremely hard to live without science, so I definitely would be crying myself to sleep every day without it 😉

      Hey emily96,

      I can’t imagine living my life without an understanding of science and medicine!!! It’s not just my job it’s who I am!!! I had 6 months maternity leave last year after the twins were born and it was the hardest 6 months of my LIFE!!! I started to miss doing experiments that usually HATE!! About 2 months down my husband got me a subscription to New Scientist and if it wasn’t in my hand by 10 am on a Friday I would seriously start to get itchy!!!

      I think I would survive, but I would miss it. My brain normally hurts at the end of the day from thinking too much but if I didn’t, then there would definitely be something missing and I would be really bored.

      I’d miss being able to learn so much new stuff every day. I’d also miss working on something with such clear medical benefits. I’m not sure a job I found boring and unstimulating would make me happy.

      So long as I had something to do with my time, and was able to see friends and family then I’d be able to survive. I’d hate to spend my time being bored and not having anything to do.
