I want to say thank you for your reply and prayer. when i was placed on probation in nursing school, i had to go two extra months with the class before me. i also had the freshman class arrive. there was this person in the freshman class who i had met somewhere else outside of school later. i asked him how he was, and he replied you got to go on and graduate. he said it to me like i was a criminal. he had dropped out of the course. i guess he thought i should have been dismissed. even my own classmates comments such as do you think nursing is right for you. i think some of them and the class i had to go on to thought i should have been dismissed. i am older now with alot of health issues. i am talking about nursing school in 80s. i am not practicing today, and this has never left me. i always pray. this is how i get through every day and night. you are correct. God will never leave us. He knows our hearts. .
