So here is the spill. As embarrassed and ashamed of myself to say it, here it goes. I started school Aug. 24th at Ivy Tech here in Lafayette, In. I'm taking Sociology, A&P I, English 111, Math 123 (which is the only math required for the ADN here) and a one credit he Student Success in healthcare class this also required here. I started off so strong but over the past two weeks I have slacked off completely. I'm failing A&P and is dropping my Math class until next semester. All my other classes I'm doing great in. I'm failing A&P because I haven't been to class. We just moved and I'm in between jobs and so life pretty much has been a nightmare for me. I need support to recharge myself back up and follow through with this. I'm not determined anymore and wanna just give up and work but I don't deep down. I look at my son and want the absolute best for him but I don't know how to get back motivated. Am I too far behind? I feel terrible. I have completely slacked off and feel like I can't catch back up. Is there any advice you guys can give me. I want to do this! I need to do this! It's not too much on me as far as school. It's just that life got in the way a bit and I really feel like I can't make up my work. Should I reach out to my professor?

Don't give up!! Let go of what has already been done and look forward to doing well from now on. Fully submerge yourself in the content. Meet with the professor and let them know whats going on. Most professors will work with you if you just tell them what's happening. Good luck to you. You can do this!

You guys have been such an inspiration. I forget how important it is to have motivation and stay positive and I've learned that with this site. Thank you so much!
