suggestions needed , 6 gap years

I was a brilliant student from the beginning in high school i done really well and got admission into one of the best IT universities in my country. i was in 6th semester when my father died and i had to support my family so i had to stop it. i did high school in 2019 and its been 2 years when i left off my studies to support my family but i always think of going back and complete what i left unfinished. whenever i see my friends doing their jobs in IT industry i really feel bad for myself because thats what i wanted in my life. im earning more than them but i strongly want to be an engineer. should i go back to my studies. im really lost. will really appreciate your advices guys
