Default Age factor to pursue Vet school

I have been reading these threads for sometimes but never post anything. I just enjoyed seeing other people's opinion and it is about the time now I need some encouragment.

I've been working for one of the best company in the world for 10 years now. I like my job, I love where I live and what I am doing . About months ago, I got an opportunity to continue my education and got financial support till the end. I think there are not many people get this kind of opportunity .In a nutshell, after thinking here and there, I decided I want to do something for my life, something that its been my passion for so long ... I wanted to pursue pre vet program. It is a totally big change and I will have to start from the scratch. I am 38 now, and have not been back to school for almost 20 years and I will have to take all science courses , maths and calculus ( yuck ) . But my mind is set and I am going to pursue it. I am ready to give up everything, uprooting my life to unknown place to pursue something that I have been wanting to .

My question, has anyone here ever faced the same problem like me?
Anyone here pursuing vet program? How difficult is for someone around my age to study science ? Do you really believe age is the factor of reggression?

Appreciate any input , opinion in this. You guys are great !
