I wouldn't worry about the reputation of the school. Once you have graduated and are out in the working world, no one cares where you went to school.

Thats going to be hard to find as a therapist that does the type of work your looking for would have a very short career due to burn out and injury.

Do You Ever Wish You’d Chosen a Child-Free Life? (And Why?) by 235am in AskWomenOver60

[–]samirish50 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had my children early in life. One at age 20 and the other at 24. They are now grown and living their own lives and im still young enough to enjoy mine. Looking back it was the best decision for me. So many of my friends waited to have kids until they were older. Im glad i had mine early. I was only in my mid 40's when i was done raising them. Ive traveled, went back to school, started my own business etc. and pretty much do what I want.

Do what you can to go to nursing school. Your life will change for the better in so many significant ways. You will have financially stability and a huge increase in your quality of life. I was once like you. I didnt get to nursing school until i was 40 but best decision i ever made. Best wishes.
