I would LOVE to hear success stories from those of you who went through a NA program with small children! I would love to go to school to become a CRNA, but am scared to death because by the time I start, my children will be approximately 6 & 8.
I would have to move my family far away, since there are no local schools that offer the program. I really worry about the fact that it is strongly discouraged to work during the program. My husband works off commission (car salesman) and I wonder whether we would make it for 28 months with no financial help from me. I also wonder about child care and what my hours will be like away from home.
Am I insane for wanting to do this? This is a dream for me to become a CRNA! I kick myself every day for not doing this before I got married and had kids, and how much easier it would have been!!:smackingf But everything happens for a reason. My kids are my world. Should I give this dream up, or is it doable? Would I be neglecting my kids? YIKES!!
