Since i was a little girl i dreamed of becoming a doctor as i grew up i job shadowed doctors and loved the idea of becoming one, I had my career set on becoming a Pediatrician. As my life went on I became pregnant at a young age (16), and decided that with family i would no longer be able to become that, so I settled for Nurse Practitioner I have job shadowed as well and love it! after having my second child,I'm about to go back to school. I'm worried that I won't make it.
