    So sorry this is happening, but the truth is, life happens while you are planning other things (quote from John Lennon I think). Even after you graduate people will be sick, die, cars conk out on you, the house catches fire----. I believe you are having a lot of stress due to nursing school and then LIFE is just too much to add to that. So sorry about the loss of your aunt. I recommend you find a counselor (school may have someone or your insurance may pay for someone). You need to learn how to cope better. Maybe ask for family/friends to help in other areas. Once you are out of school I hope things calm down some. Good luck

    Life on top of nursing school is insanely difficult.

    Personally, I went through a divorce and lost seeing my children everyday. I had other issues pop up but those two hit me the hardest.

    I actually came to thoroughly resent school as I felt it somehow played into the demise of my happy life, as I knew it.

    I had no choice but to trudge on as I was looking at a future as a single woman.

    I have seen other students deal with divorces, deaths... and even their own cancer!

    Please work on dealing with your issues.

    I tried to fight through school without seeing a counselor and I ended up failing twice.

    Then I had the stress of getting myself reinstated, which I obviously did.

    One thing I did, besides a counselor, was always bringing myself back to the image of seeing my children pinning me on graduation day.

    Wishing you the best.
