Legal Question

i have been employed by the same place for 6 years. Just the last few months i have been sent upstate to the university for medical care causing me to miss work.. my employer says even with my FMLA and doctor notes backing up why i was missing work they are terminating me for attendance. Is this legal and do i have any defense? or just the way the world works?
