It's been awhile! Update.....


I am two weeks from graduating from nursing school! I have two exams, two care plans and two big papers left and if I pass them all I graduate December 18th. I really am working my hindend off to make this happen and am still struggling to get the good grades I need. I'm passing as of now and really just want to be done, this has been a long 3 years of school, but thanks to al-anon I was able to do it! Everyday it was hard to be a full time Mom, full time student, part time employee and get this far, but I did it. Thank you for all the support MIP family also, with my al-anoners support it has been easier. Since my sponsors passing although I still miss her profoundly especially with a big thing like this. I wouldn't have ever gotten into nursing school without her loving me so much that I started to love myself and realize my own worth and dreams! I look back and find it so hard to imagine how far I've come! I am healthy, happy, in a great relationship, my kids are healthy, and I am about to graduate after 3 years of hard work and dedication towards a career as a registered nurse. Things are going so well that even when I check in here I like to catch up with everyone from time to time, I really have no complaints as of now, what a change for me. I tell everyone about al-anon and how it changed my life for the better. I hope you all are doing well and I send lots of love and support to you all!!!!

Woohoo BreakingFree - what a great update! Congratulations for you and may your new career bring you tons of peace and serenity!

I love when folks stop by and share their ESH. It looks to me as if you're a living example of how the program works, when we work it.

Keep coming back - and pat yourself on the back!
