Jury Duty ... really?

$

Hello, I am Wedgworth and this is my first time at this forum. I am very stressed out at getting a jury summons to

begin in a couple of weeks. I have served on a jury (a criminal trial that lasted several weeks and three times on grand jury), so

I have never shirked my "civic duty." Right now I don't have the energy for it and want my doctor to write me an excuse. I was

told today he probably won't do it. I am back at work after recovery from the hystrectomy and debulking surgery and eight cycles

of chemo. I have just enough stamina to go to work and come home. No overtime. I am sixty-five and can't afford to retire.  I sometimes feel I am expected to push myself

as if I didn't spend the past sixth months coping with stage 4 ovarian cancer while working.  I would

just like to find out if anyone has any tips or insights as to how to cope with this jury duty thing? Thank you.
