:(

Ok I have something to share with you all.  This semester has been a long, stressful, busy one.  Lots of ups and downs.  You have all been there along the way.  I want to say thank you for that.

The bad news is this, I will not be going forth in this program next semester.  I failed the med/surg class (I know you are thinking WTF?!?!?! you are a med/surg nurse! and let me tell you I am thinking the same thing) and will not be graduating in May.

This is not the end of the road, only a minor setback. I have a couple of choices.  I could reenter the same program next fall and finish out here. Or I can try to get into a couple of other programs that are in the area.  I think I am going to choose the latter.  I am tired of all the games and hoops I have to jump through just to get this far.  (Some of which I have blogged about but some I have not.)  This next semester I will take to regroup and get my head on straight and then I will try again. I promise.

Till then I should have plenty of stories to share with you from working!!

If any of my (former) fellow students are reading this, please know that I am saddened that I will not be graduating with you. I wish you all the best of luck not only next semester but in your career.  You will all do fine, just keep on keeping on!!!!!

  1. While I am sorry to hear about this...I know that you will NOT give up and that makes me happy. I know everytime yet another trial comes upon my family I am left to wonder why He trusts me so much. I've always been told that He will never give you more than you can bear...but sometimes I think He has mixed me up with someone else a bit stronger ye know? Regardless, I know you are a strong woman and you will make it through this, and come out shining!! Love ya Karen!!!
