I too was in my 40's when I started LPN school in September 2007 and am happy to say graduated in August 2008. We started w/52 students and graduated w/17. It is a very difficuly course, but it can be done. I too cried often and lost 30lbs. But.....
I am in the middle TN area and would like to know if anybody is interested in possibly getting a study group together. I am doing the TCN/Excelsior program.
