i am about to embark on my journey in to nursing school. i have dreamed of this moment for many years and it is finally happening. i am an older student, wife and mother. i know there are alot of students that fit my profile, and i would love to hear some encouraging feelings on the positive aspects of attending nursing school. i have been hearing a lot of negative feedback and it almost scares me. it makes me think i am really heading in to a war zone. please someone out there reply with some positive thoughts on your experiences. :monkeydance:

20 BUCKS an HOUR!!!
I'm a CNA and am living paycheck to paycheck...I make 10 an hour (with shift differential)...Most RNs make around 20 an hour here...Maybe a bit more...BUT I'm guessing you live somewhere where the cost of living is much higher than here. Here a 2 bed house runs 600 a month.
