The Final Countdown...


I returned to school this week for one final month of my nursing program.

I can't believe it's almost over--and yet, while I should be rejoicing, a part of me is devestated. I have loved my time at school. It has been harder than I can ever express, and I have pushed myself more than I thought was possible. The people I love have sacrificed so much, and others have risen to extend their hands during my time of need. I have laughed and cried and lost much sleep, having studied until my head literally hurt. I didn't realize what I was capable of, but now I know, and this journey is almost complete. While I smile, tears are in my eyes. I have almost accomplished a dream..almost.
