I am honestly not sure if this has been asked before, but it probably has. I am 40 years old, I've been married 20 years, and am a father of two beautiful children (11 years old and 15 months), I have a mortgage and bills bills bills! I am a manager that works nights 40 hours +/- a week. So I am pretty much established. I decided to take a U-turn at 38 and head back to school. I am just about to wrap up my Pre-Req's (9 months or so to go) and am beginning to plan ahead. I have the wonderful support of my wife and together we have spoken to many people who say working full time and going through Nursing school can be done.....but my question is, HOW?? You always hear everyone's opinion around campus about it being impossible to accomplish; that if I work, it can only be part time at Starbucks or something similar. Oh, and that I would have to move back in with my parents....LOL, yeah like that's going to happen. My parents are almost ready to move in with me!!!! These things are basically not an option for me. I can not and will not be able to take a step back in order to acheive this goal. I would love to have some honest feedback and helpful tips in my quest to accomplish what some people claim to be the impossible. Thank you, D
