Being sick while in Nursing school

There are some things that just suck beyond belief, and one of them is being sick while in Nursing school. It is so hard to stay home and take care of yourself because you really cant afford to miss any of the classes. On the other hand, you dont want to go to school and contaminate the entire class room.
I have a low grade fever, cough, runy nose, congestion, upset stomach, and I am just exhausted. I would love to stay home but I have a presentation to do today for my Ethics class. Today is my long day of classes, a really long day. I hope I can make it through.
The second part of this that is annoying is that with being pregnant, there is almost nothing that I can take (ok there is, but it doesnt work). So I have to tough it out. And Im gonna whine about it. Alot.

Think of it as a precursor of things to come. You won’t be able to call in sick to work every time you’re sick when you’re a nurse – even though you don’t want to spread your germs to your co-workers and patients.
It sucks. I know. Hope you feel better soon Tiffany!
