I am a single mother of 4 beautiful babies, who I love so very much. I just want to be able to go to school and get a career and build a life for myself and my children without having to rely on anyone else. Im very willing and I believe that we are capable of anything we put our minds to. I just want to be somebody that my children can look up to, I want to be the best role model and hereo in there eyes, i want them to know that they to are smart enough to one day in the future pursue the dreams and goals no matter how big they may be. My why for pursuing higher education would be for 3 reasons, one is for my own knowledge gained and benefit, the second is for my kids, to show them its possible, and the third, for the better income that can be possible by obtaining higher education.

I've struggled in the past with addiction and had 4 kids to the system and I'm working towards getting them back and pursuing my career at the same time I struggled with it for 15 plus years and seen so much and been through so much, I just didn't want to wake up and live that life anymore was tired of losing friends that had so much life to live left. I plan to pursue phlebotomy. Because it's honestly a foot in the door to a medical field that I will forever want to learn, because it hits a special spot in me because I can relate and that degree would be somatic therapy and it's targeting trauma and how to heal that with out prescription drugs and naturally and also understanding why the mind does what it does and how to change those habits or the "instant gratification" feeling. I also want to pursue something that relates to the somatic therapy and neurological therapy, physcology. I want to know more about why we choose that, and what there is going on in our brains and bodies that we can heal or past trauma or erase it so to speak so that it doesn't effect the Best life we could possibly be living. I've lost friends that were as young as 21 to opioid and heroin addiction, and in the same house for 5 years in a row once a year at least one person died and was found alone, and there was multiple calls where the person was fortunate enough to survive the overdose and someone didn't leave them it's a struggle and it's a choice that we often don't know why we make it we just do it and sometimes alot of the time don't want to do it but we're lacking something that were finding in that substance and I'm determined to find out what that is. Trump is shooting the drugs down and I'm here to study until I can solve the root cause of the sad losses of the loved ones we have had to experience. I'm going to study until addiction is no longer a thing to worry about for our future children and grandchildren. I'm going to study until I know what there is to know and I'm going to give as many people the wisdom I gain so that they to can share there wisdom and maybe one small voice can touch someone or reach someone that saves a life.
