When it did come up (after recruitment was over), I just said "I had to have an operation on my spine" and that pretty much satisfied people's curiosity (not that very many people were curious, actually!). You might be worrying about something that won't come up at all.
Anyway, I think there is such a thing as "oversharing" and "too much information". And in the busy-ness of recruitment parties, you want to maximize your positive interactions and not delve into the super serious stuff. You really don't have that kind of time. That's my opinion, of course.
More concerned about your GPA. Can you take a college class or two during summer school to show that you can handle college level work?

I've already signed up for two semester credit (though I don't intend to seek credit), self-paced college classes actually, and I've been on the rebound grades wise ever since I went back to school, so I'm feeling good about them. From your experience, do you think marks on these could be factored into my recruitment info GPA? Also PMed you a little more about this situation, as it's a little complicated. Thanks!
