The wonderful thing about nursing is that it is open to everyone of all ages. Please give a cheer to all the people who believe that age is not a factor in learning. And, to all the people who strive for knowledge regardless of age. How old were you when you started nursing school?

I was 36, started from the bottom with prereqs graduated at 39. The entire time I was in school I regretted not going to school when I was younger but my thought has changed. Taking this journey at this age has brought new hopes and challenges in my life (exciting). I feel I'd be burned out by now had I been a nurse in my twenties.
