I read the statistic once on how many times the average college student changes their major/career path throughout their university experience and I think it is like... 3 or something. I began college in nursing/pre-med too. I worked as a CNA for 8 years doing everything from geriatrics to oncology to pediatric neuroscience. It was this huge love/hate relationship that I had with my work. I realized that once I graduated, I'd be working nights, weekends and holidays. I just couldn't handle the stress of working 12 hour graveyards and the sadness of missing out on family activities and things. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I empathize with the both of you. I can see why Jeff would make a career change to get out of medicine and I see why you made one to be with your future family. Like you, I made that decision not too long ago (family rather than a Ph.D.) and I know it is the right one. I think that as life happens and you get to know yourself better and better, you just begin to make these huge decisions and changes and one day, you realize that life suits you and you wouldn't have it any other way. I didn't know you had your first bachelor's degree. Congratulations! Good luck with your education degree!Tiffany Hartmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09881368278534098521noreply@blogger.com
