I WAS ACADEMICALLY DISMISSED AT THE END OF THE FALL TERM (FALL 2023) FROM ST. PAUL’S SCHOOL OF NURSING SCHOOL. I AM APPEALING TO BE CONSIDERED FOR RE-ENTRY INTO THE SUMMER TERM. (MAY 2024)I AM AWARE IT IS MY RESPONSIBILITY TO MAINTAIN MY GRADES AND I TAKE FULL OWNERSHIP IN ME FAILING BUT I HAVE BEEN GOING THROUGH A TOUGH TIME WHILST JUGGLING MANY THINGS OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL.
I AM A FULL TIME MOM AND HAVE BEEN HAVING A DIFFICULT TIME WITH CO PARENTING WITH MY CHILDS FATHER. I AM ALSO A FULL TIME EMPLOYEE WORKING 5 DAYS A WEEK AND BEING IN SCHOOL FULL TIME RIGHT AFTER WORK. IN SEPTEMBER, I LOST A CLOSE AUNT AND SINCE THEN HAVE BEEN FINDING IT HARD TO MANAGE EVERYTHING. THIS LOSS TOOK A TOLL ON ME AS WE WERE VERY CLOSE. SHE RAISED ME AND ALWAYS ENCOURAGED ME TO NEVER GIVE UP ON NURSING. SHE EVEN OFFERED TO HELP ME FINANCIALLY WITH SCHOOL IF I NEEDED.
SINCE BEING DISMISSED, I HAVE HAD THE TIME TO REFELCT ON MY ACTIONS. I HAVE ALWAYS HAD A PASSION FOR WANTING TO BECOME A NURSE AND HELP OTHERS. I AM CURRENTLY WORKING IN HEALTHCARE AND SEE NO OTHER CAREER CHOICE THAT WOULD FULFILL ME. I HAD A MEETING WITH MY MANAGER AND WE DISCUSSED A PLAN AS FAR AS MY SCHEDULE IS CONCERNED. I WILL BE WORKING HALF THE WEEK IN OFFICE AND SOME DAYS REMOTELY. THIS WILL HELP ME GREATLY AS I WOULD HAVE MORE TIME TO FOCUS ON SCHOOL. I ALSO HAD A SERIOUS DISCUSSION WITH MY CHILDS FATHER AND WE CAME TO AN AGREEMENT THAT THROUGH MY TIME IN SCHOOL HE WILL BE TAKING MORE OF THE LOAD WHEN IT COMES TO OUR CHILDS CARE. AS FAR AS THE LOSS IVE EXPERIENCED, IT HAS BEEN TOUGH, BUT I AM DEALING WITH IT AND TAKING IT ONE DAY AT A TIME.
