My plan is to get through LPN school.

Thanks so much everyone for your replies.

Just starting out in LPN Program. Any ideas on how to remember prefixes and suffixes. Example: colpo-, costo-, dacry- I have pages of them and am wondering how I'll remember them all. Thanks,

What is WIA through the local unemployment office? My brother changed careers recently @ age 40 and the State of LA paid for his schooling through the unemployment office. Would this be the same thing? I have not had a chance to talk with him about this.

I too am wondering if I am going to be able to do this. I've been waiting for another LPN class to start this fall as I missed the one last fall. I'm 43 and I've always wanted to do it and always thought I could. I started CNA training about 6 months ago in LTC and thought I would work in LTC until I finished nursing school, but the 2nd day of training and the first room we went in to a man had been lying in his diahrea for some time and it stunk so bad. I could not handle the smell and had to leave the room. I didn't complete CNA training and felt very bad about myself. I even gave up the idea of becoming a nurse, but I keep coming back to it. I'm thinking I would want to work in a health clinic or home health, and most likely will be using my nursing skills in the mission field. I would also take every opportunity to say to my patient something about Jesus like "Jesus Loves You". Sometimes we don't have to say a thing but people will see him through us and notice there is something different and peaceful about us. I'm curious as to how your feeling about it these days and would love to chat with you about it because it sounds like we're in the same boat. Paige
