A&P I Spring 2007 Semster - Welcome!

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

I will be taking A&P I next semester when I come back from Christmas break for the Spring 2007 semester. I didn't know if someone was going to start a group or not, so I thought I would create a thread to find those of us who have been "getting our feet wet" and are going to start into the fun stuff during the Spring 2007 semester. I look forward to seeing who all will be feeling my pain!

Add me to the list! I am enrolled in ANP101 at Ivy Tech for a Saturday class which is all day, and on a waiting list for a class that equal ANP101 and 102 at IUPUI for an all day Sunday class. If I get in to the IUPUI (I am 3rd on the list so I am sure I will) then I will drop the ones at Ivy Tech. I would rather get it all done in one semester.

And to the ladies with special needs children, add me to that list too :) I have 2 children with special needs. a 4 year old BOY with a rare genetic disorder 45xo,46xy mixed gonadal dysgenesis, he has had 5 surgeries and over 20 hospital stay sand attends a developmental pre-school.

I also have a 2 year old with Pierre Robin Sequence and a Chiari malformation I, he has also had 5 surgeries including the brain surgery.

Together we have had 10 surgeries, 18 specialists at Riley Hospital, 8 therapists, and well over 30 hospital stays. When my 4 year old was in the NICU, that is when I decided my degree in computer programming wasn't going to be put to use. I wanted to be a nurse. Finally 4 years later we are down to 8 doctors and 3 therapies a week, so I have time to be back in school!

Hi! I too am taking A&P I Spring 2007. I'm pretty excited about it. I just finished my first Chem class. And I survied that and even got an A! If I could earn an A in Chem, I'm sure I can do well in A&P. I attempted to take A&P a while back, but it was online and I felt like I wasn't getting what I needed to out of it, so I dropped it.

Good luck to everyone!

Hi All...I too will be starting A&P 1 in January. I'm really nervous as this is my second attempt at getting my RN...during my first year in a 4 yr college program 95% of my nursing general bio class failed, me unfortunatly being one of them. The nursing dept would do nothing about the teacher and we were all thrown back a entire year to retake the class. At that point most of us ended up quitting school. I stuck it out for another year, then A&P came, I choked and quit school. I'm finally going back almost 7 years later and I'm looking forward to the support of this group cause this time I want to ace it. I know we can do it together.:typing

Hi Leanne,

I am right there with you! My daughter has had many surgeries and hospital stays at Childrens Hospital Los Angeles. I had a baby NICU experience most likely due to the fact that she was my first child and I felt totally out of control and therefore upset with the staff. It was very difficult being separated from her. Felt very unreal. My dream is become a RN and Lactation Consultant. So it's funny that I never wanted to see a NICU again after getting out and I'll probably be working there at some point in my life as my passion is to help Moms with Special Needs babies be able to breastfeed them. I pumped for my daughter as she could never latch and then ended up getting a g-tube but I truly believe my milk helped her immune system and to come as far as she has. I'm going to look up the sydromes for your children as I have never heard of them before. My daughter doesn't have a syndrome, she is supposedly the only person who has her exact combination of monosomy 6, trisomy 16. I'm looking forward to learning a lot in Anatomy this semester and from all the people on this list!
