I am currently a stay-at-home mom, although I have recently been accepted to an ADN program which commences mid-January. I have been very sure for many years now that I want to be a nurse. Despite my great desire to be a nurse I do not want to do it if it will be to the detriment of my family. I am somewhat nervous about leaving my 15-month-old with a sitter/daycare, and my situation is fairly complicated. My daughter and I will be living with a family friend during the week for class and then home with my husband on the weekends. I am wondering if anyone out there has had a similar experience, or if anyone can offer advice whether or not in the end it was worth the strain on the family, or if they would do it again. Thank you for your insight!
