before I was scheduled to be interviewed for a higher position.It was unprofessionally last minute to cancel.But I knew I couldn’t give it my full attention.So， I emailed to explain.The program officer replied immediately， urging me to focus on my family.“The overall goal over the coming weeks is to just be a good daughter，” she said.“We can wait.” 　　Since my mother’s cancer diagnosis （诊断）， she has overcome many obstacles， for which we are incredibly grateful.But as the years passed and I mixed my caregiving role with my professional responsibilities， I found myself increasingly falling short at work.I was missing events because I was with her for treatments.I didn’t apply to training because I couldn’t focus.I was making silly mistakes， forgetting things and asking for extensions.I feared I was letting down my colleagues. 　　But in time， I came to feel I was in the right place.As it happens， my research is in a field seeking to assess and improve health care.With my mother’s illness， I suddenly went from studying it in a removed way to being completely， heartbreakingly in the middle of it.Besides the helplessness， stress， and sadness， I found I just couldn’t turn off my research brain， studying her care and texting colleagues with ideas， which reassured me that even though I was currently only giving my career about 50％ of attention， I was more engaged than ever with my scientific questions. 　　I also learned that some good could come from allowing the boundaries between my work and life to blur （模糊）.I received empathy， understanding and kindness from my program officer and colleagues.I learned how being weak brought out the best in people.I no longer try to predict what will happen next.Instead， I try to focus on my newfound appreciation for the things like friendship， connection， and sometimes unexpected support.And although I sometimes miss the clean boundaries I used to have， I’ve learned to embrace the blurriness. 1.What can be learned from the first
