[quote=Anonymous]I know there are lots of lawyers here. Be kind, I've been though a lot. After graduation from law school /passing the bar, I got married right away and had a child who had lots of challenges. I stayed home to care for him. Then (of course) I got sick and was chronically ill for many years. I'm healing now. I don't regret staying at home to help my son. He's doing well now and I couldn't be more proud. But now that he's more independent, I feel like life has passed me by and I've lost any opportunity for a career. I still want to use my degree, even if it's to do pro bono work. I would love to help children or do human rights work. Sadly, I don't remember much from school and I don't know how useful I can be to anyone. How can I get back in? How can I find a mentor? Who would take me even as a volunteer with my non job history? [/quote]
