Here we go again.

The stress is setting in. Michael has decided to go back to school. He already has one degree and enough credit hours for a second but he wants to head in an entirely new direction. He has 2 or 3 semesters of pre-rec classes than he wants to head to Medical school. Michael has wanted to be a doctor as long as I've known him and, if you ask his family, as long as anyone can remember. I'm proud of him for finally deciding it's what he should do.

Now comes the scary part...I guess not scary but very real. 2 years at the U and then who knows where for Med school(Hopefully still Utah), 4 years of Med school, 3-6 years of residency, if you've added correctly that 9-12 years.

We have decided to make this work we need to move to Salt Lake. Which means we have got to sell our 4Runner to pay off debt and make it possible to rent our house. So if you know anyone who wants a well loved car or a house to rent let me know:)

Good luck. We have been working through similar types of issues, and I know how stressful it can be. Especially with your little ones. We will sent good thoughts your way.

I still remember when Harvey Dean said he should go back for a Master's Degree. What? Two more years? But 10+ is a bit different, but you will be so much happier in the long run! He can do it, you can do it! He'll be a great doctor!
