Thanks everyone for the confidence. You know Jim your words were the same that the counselor at the school told me. She said a sense of direction goes along way.

I also told the interviewer I was worried because I am 51. She said you are never to old to go to school. She said the class that just graduated had a 62 year old in it.

I thought I would make it through Christmas. I went to my children’s house and I was fine till I went home by myself. I cried myself to sleep last night. I finally got up and took a sleeping pill. The Dr. said it would be ok to take sleeping pills and anti depressant pills for a couple of months to help me through the grieving process. I had an appt. today for a school. I applied to a career school that trains Medical ass. dental ass.etc.many other medical careers I applied for the medical ass. I had to take take a test and I was worried because I have not been to college since 1976. I did very well. She said I scored high enough I could apply for the pharmacy if I wanted to. I told her the only experience I have is taking care of my husband. When he came home from the hospital I had to give him his infusion antibiotics, I tested his blood sugar. I have given him his B12 shots and insulin. The home health care nurse taught me me how to change his dressings and I also made sure he took all of his meds. He had know idea what he was suppose to take. My interviewer told me that is considered experience. I told her my husband passed November 21st. I need to do something to keep busy. She said my husband will probably be very proud of me. I start Jan. 20th. Thanks everyone for all your kind words and I will let you know how school is going.
