I'm a single mom, but not a med student until this fall. During undergrad, I thought I had it easier than most of my classmates. They seemed to be conflicted with "should I party or should I study." I know my responsibilities and time constraints, my answer was always study. My day starts at 2:00a.m. I get my studying done and workout before my daughter wakes. I get a 30 min nap before I pick her up from school. Then we do her homework, softball, read a bed time story and we are both off to bed by 10:00. This will probably change during med school. Probably no nap for me and no sleeping after I tuck her into bed
Wha! Oh, well. I am proud my daughter is watching me achieve my goals.
