   GAA30 replied to luvmy3kids's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Curious me I get the same response. People always say, i know you got an A or don't worry you know you'll do fine. The truth is I do not worry but, the lord and I are always in conversation about Nursing. So, it's always a concern. I love the quote...
