Returning to work after caring for family (Salt Lake City)

I stepped out for 5 months to care for a family member and now want to return. Thank you in advance. I am unsure how to describe the break. What helped?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 5 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
