I am in my early forties and I'm a first year nursing student. Some might say" at this age", but I say this is my opportunity to give back to society after years of receiving. After graduating high school I still had no clue of which direction I was heading. I sampled different avenues of life but it wasn't until I had my children, they came with complications that I decided where I wanted to be and what I wanted to do. So here I am nearing the completion of my first year and I must say it wasn't an easy one. Juggling family life ,school and work at times is a bit challenging and takes a while to settle into but never the less with Gods guidance and grace I will get there
