Smile Hello

Hi , I am new to this board and I really am enjoying it! I live in Western MA. I am a student...still deciding if I should keep plugging along the path to becoming an RN or becoming an LPN first and then continuing on....?? I am a mom to 5 boys! 20, 15, 9, 7 and 4! Busy, busy!
I am looking forward to meeting people on this board.

Re: Hello

Thanks for all the words of encouragment and welcome. I am going to meet with the director of nursing tomorrow to discuss my "path". I think I am going to go the RN route. That is what I really want so I think I will just keep plugging along! I will let you know how it goes!
