I graduated with my GN on May 15th 2021 I was able to complete this through the pandemic, with adaptability and perseverance to follow my calling all while taking care of a family as well. Nursing school is challenging however, the challenges it presented for me were like no other, and because of that it has molded me to be better, stronger, and smarter, and more patient. It has helped me to see nursing in a more advanced light then before and I am forever grateful for it. During second semester I volunteered at the flu clinic administering the influenza vaccine, and I also created a go fund me for a fellow student to raise money so he could go back to Africa, to visit his family who he had not seen in years. They were living in a refugee camp and he had 7 siblings and had lost his father.
I attended CCC from 2016-2019 to complete my prerequisites for the RN program. I took additional classes that were not expected of me because I felt they would be helpful long term including math, english, and 5 psychology classes in addition to the two that were needed.
