  1. " Lies, Damn lies and statistics"

    Is anyone else strugling with statistics?? I am a reasonably intelligent woman, but wow, I'm so lost! Our professor has a unique way of lecturing...He doesn't. From day one, he started class by asking us questions about the text. For instance, somet...
  2. Do your nursing supervisors do anything?

    Something to keep in mind is that there is always two sides to every issue. I am not in an administrative or supervisory role, but my husband is (not in the medical field, however), so I get to see the other side of the desk, so to speak. I am always...
  3. desperate for some input!

    I did call the center and was actually allowed to talk to him. I think that was a mistake. He was very beligerent and manipulative, and wasn't telling the truth about everything. He said he's leaving Thursday, he has no intention of going to rehab, k...
  4. desperate for some input!

    I've posted some time ago about my son disclosing his drug problem to me, and I got some much needed encouragement. Now I'm back. Here's the deal: My son is a nurse. He is suspected of stealing " a card"? from work. A "friend " got him into a detox ...
  5. panic every time...

    I can SO relate to what you are saying. I also panic! I mean freak out! It is the issue that kept me from going to nursing school for a long time. Then I aksed a nurse about it. You know, How did she "get used" to it? She told me that she never has. ...
  6. What about this hair?!

    Thanks for the info, LOVE the cute bob cut in the link, unfortunalty my hair is like elizabells, it would certainly be a mushroom, or even a nuclear mushroom cloud! I too made the mistake of cutting it short once. Have mercy!! It became an entity of ...
  7. What about this hair?!

    I have thick, course, wavy hair and have grown it out long for nursing school. My logic was that if it were long, I could wear a pony tale, and not have to fix it all the time, since I would be very short on time for a few years. Well, I can't stand ...
  8. Am I supposed to know this????

    Thanks for all the responses. Looked up that websight, it's fabulous, thank you! I too, am going through the book and working problems over and over till I get them right, and yay for me,I am figuring it out, I guess I just assumed that she would dem...
  9. Am I supposed to know this????

    I just started taking basic chemistry and am really worried. It's been 25 years since high school, (went to a really small rural one and the only math I had was basic algebra.) and we didn't have chemistry. So I'm entering this as a blank slate. Now,...
  10. what in the world do i do?

    My 23 year old son is a nurse, I myself am in nursing school. This morning he told me what I had long suspected... he is addicted to opiates. He is scared, wants to stop, has tried on his own in the past but has been unsuccessful. Will he lose his li...
  11. Second Guessing My Choice of Career

    I don't really know where this thread goes so I'll write it here. Yesterday I went with my mother in law to start the difficult process of stem cell harvesting. While I was in the room, a nurse and another girl, whom I'm assuming was also a nurse or ...
