   Thank you for your response CuriousMe. I work full-time and go to school, so after taking almost 4 years to finish my AA degree I am on the crispy side of burnt out. I think I may just need to take this semester off to breath, recharge my batteries, ...

14. Why do you want to be a nurse?

    EatLoveNurse replied to JoeyDog's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I want to be a PICU/NICU nurse. I love the specialty of helping very sick babies. I do understand that many do not make it, but I cannot even imagine how rewarding it must be to watch a very sick baby leave the unit healthy! Getting to be a part of t...
