    Default No longer part of class 2014 :(

    Got some bad news. I had to withdraw from this semester and have to retake my classes next spring due to a horrible lower respiratory infection. I'm hoping I can go spring of 2015 if funds allow, but retaking these courses are going to be very expensive.

    Tough break. Hang in there, knock out the classes, the trail will still be there.

    It was pretty disheartening, not just the trail, but having to withdraw from everything. I would have liked to even get out there this summer because technically I don't have anything with school until fall, but I don't have the finances to do both the trail and go back to school in the fall so I'm pretty much stuck. I might be able to get a section hike or something though, so all isn't lost.

    Been there, and it blows. I missed a huge amount of class this semester due to an infection and had to drop some stuff. Nearly wound up in that same position.

    Not happy to hear you won't make it this time around, but you will eventually!

    I am really sorry to hear this. I can't imagine how disappointed you must feel, having come so far and so close....

    I was looking forward to hopefully seeing you and maybe hiking a bit with you as a fellow SOBOer -- we're a rare breed! Best of luck to you; thank you for your service, and thank you for choosing to further your life of service as a nurse. People like you are the best of us.
