Online school-love it:)

For me, taking classes in a traditional, on-ground school was not an option. I cannot conform to a set schedule due to the unique needs my son's illness requires, but rather I need one that can flucuate with and accomodate the twists and turns my son's illness presents. I love the fact that I can log into class when he is napping or take my laptop with me to dialysis and use the time there to complete schoolwork. I go to his dialysis 3 x/ wk for 3 hours each and have therapists ( speech, OT, and PT) that come out 3 x/week for an hour each on the non-dialysis days. He also sees many other specialists such as the cardiologist, hematologist, and GI. Couple these responsibilities with the raising of my 10 year old son, running a house, and trying to find time to be a decent girlfriend and "scheduled" classes just don't fit the bill. With the online platform I can take my laptop with me anywhere I go and be "in school" whenever I want...even if for only 15 minute segments at a time. I simply love being an online student!
