And well, I am wondering if its going to go as badly as the first week did. I feel so behind. And I am studying. But nothing is sticking up there!. I can read and re read my material. Do my labs, and all that and I just cant seem to retain any of it. What am I doing wrong. Any tips on a better way to study? Sure could use the help!!

There are women of all ages in this class, oh and 1 guy. But I sit between two younger women , probably early 20's. And they know so much more than I do and type so much faster than I do. I feel like I've fallen behind when we are doing our lessons. Some of you know that I had carpal tunnel surgery a year and a half ago. My left hand is doing well. But my right hand isnt. Its very weak in the wrist and I have alot of swelling in the fatty area in my palm by my thumb and first finger. I am thinking some nerve damage . But not sure. But the position they want us to hold our hand ( hand straight with arm and wrist not resting on board ) is impossible with this weakness in there. I guess I just have to keep trying and hope that I get used to what they want me to do. I just dont want to fail for not being able to do it according to their instructions.

Thanks for listening ot my rambling....
