  • You don’t have time to have a kid before this surgery if it’s in January, and I don’t think either of you want this stress.

    Best cast scenario, it’s not cancer, move forward however.

    Worst case, you have to decide between terminating the pregnancy or removing the cancer.

    And the inability to have biological children does not preclude you from becoming parents. Yes, it’s a much more complicated process to adopt/deal with surrogacy/etc. , but you’re not completely cutting off the option to raise a new generation.














  • I’m a SOC Analyst in my mid 20s.

    I did a boot camp, it got me a job. BUT I already had a degree, though in a completely unrelated field. For people just out of college age like me, that degree requirement was much more about showing you’re capable of committing to something than it was about specific knowledge.

    You’re going to need to get certifications no matter what you do. My boot camp prepared me for Sec+ and CySA+, but you could 100% do that on your own.

    At the end of the day, it’s going to come down to how much time/money you’re willing to invest. If you’re able to get a degree without significant hardship, I’d do that. There’s so much value to education, no matter the subject.

    If you’ve got less money and time than that, consider a boot camp. I had an amazing time in mine, and the schedules are often designed for working adults. My class had people of all ages, though the ones with some previous interests/hobbies in IT definitely got the most out of it.

    Feel free to DM me, mentoring and networking is a huge part of cyber!
