I'm crushed. Elizabeth, my 18 yoa daughter, dropped out of school with only 6 weeks left. She has missed a great deal of school due to illness and she found out she wasn't going to graduate. Trying times, but she has decided to take the GED rather than repeat the fall semester & graduate in Dec.

Elizabeth wouldn't graduate with her friends if she repeated the next semester. I respect her decision, it just hurts because I wanted to see my baby in her cap & gown

Big S, She should be able to "walk" with her class. The only difference being that when she gets her "diploma," inside it will instead be a congratulatory sheet from the school instead of an actual diploma.
Been there, done that - but for different reasons.
