Good for you! I went to nursing school when I was 34, and a single mom of a 3 year old. I lived off grants and loans. I have been a nurse for 8 years now. You will be able to get a job anywhere you want, the shortage makes it easy to get what you want, where you want, etc. My only problem is that now I am off on SSI because of my disability of Bipolar Disorder and several other things. I hope to go back soon, but I am going to try to work in Mental health instead of the ER. Best of luck to you. PM me if you have any questions! Kat
