    This is very similar to my story. Dropped out of high school in 9th grade and now I am finishing up my first year of my DNP program.

    You are truly an inspiration to not only mothers, but black women and black men. I m a nurse and I haven’t pushed myself as much as I could have. But today is my breaking point . I will go back to school and obtain my DNP. God bless you and your family ❤

    Thank you!!!! I needed to hear your wonderful testimony. I'm the single mom with 2 kids who wants to become a nurse and make a difference as well but life is hard sometimes. God knows I needed this encouragement. I want to leave a wonderful legacy for my kids of a mom who has loved them fiercely and did everything she could to show them even when it's hard, with God all things are possible. 💖

I really feel God is calling me to become a RN but with me not having a HS diploma I didn’t know how to start. But thanks to you I will not give up no matter how many obstacles life hits me with. Thank you so much 😊 May God continue to bless you and your wonderful family 🙏
