Falling Behind

Long story short, I have had a major medical problem (had a baby 2.5 months to early and she has extensive medical problems from it) and didn't plan to return to school until fall but financial aid repayment is hassling me so I had to return this semester so that things don't go irreversably to collections. I love school but we still have a procedure left on top of massive developmental issues and life is still pretty chaotic. I am a biomedical sciences student. I was able to get everything online but the first two weeks of this summer were irregularly crazy due to all of my baby's one year follow-ups with her specialists which were a lot to process and my brain seems to have permanently taken a hit. I'm way behind on school work. I'm taking cell biology and genetics right now. Is it better to start on assignments coming due or go back to what I have missed? I am such a perfectionist and actually really love the material so I hate this but I really need to pull through. Also any advice on getting back into the swing of things after a year? It has been even harder than anticipated. The text book especially for cell biology is taking me so long to read. Any help or ways you organize things is really helpful.
