  3. Scope of practice- massage therapy

  12. Baby and school?

    @Shookclays Wow! See I can't imagine being a single mom. I guess sometimes you don't really know what you're capable of until you try. Kudos to your cousin.. Yeah, I see what you're saying about waiting until after you get your RN, but it seems there...

    I suppose if it becomes too overwhelming I can switch to part time. However, being in my early thirties I would like to finish sooner than later.
