Never let anyone tell you can't be something you know you want to be. I have always been introverted and hate talking to strangers but can't imagine doing anything other than nursing. My very first clinical instructor told me she didn't think I would...

My first shift on my own as a newgrad. A code black: moving every patient/bed/IV pole/02tank into the hallway because of a potential tornado. One patient in the hallway demanded his night-time medicine right then and there. NBD two other patients nee...
