So it's been awhile since I updated on school, but things in life have been so crazy. I posted a few months back about applying to the Masters program for nursing. {I did get excepted!} I got excepted and actually started my first class in October 2014. However, after going to one class, my mom's illness took a nosedive. I dropped because I wasn't quite sure of her immediate future.
I reregistered for January and here I am now getting ready for my second class tomorrow evening. Of course it's still not easy because she is still so gravely ill. We just received bad news on Monday which makes it hard to focus on any schoolwork. I'm trying to hang in there and get this accomplished so I can stay on track with the program. I'm doing it for her mostly. She is my inspiration to keep on pursuing advanced healthcare so I can understand diseases like hers much better. I even have a soft spot in my heart now for oncology.
I'm also doing it for my family so that I can give them a better quality of life. Times are going to be tough now that things have changed so drastically with mom. We all chip in to help her. I'm paying child care now that is expensive. And my hours have been cut because of other scheduling issues. We are all in this together. It' going to be a long 3 years. It will be worth it one day.
