King Cody, I say....step in to your AUTHENTIC self. Whatever that is. People will only see your competence and will immediately be grateful if you help them get well. If people don't understand you then there is a great opportunity for you to demons...

I am so sorry to hear about your son. I have heard that is the worst loss a human being can experience. Don't worry, you'll see him again on the other side. I wish you well and I applaud your courage. John

Hey! Have you ever heard of the "COMMISIONED CORPS"? It's a totally cool military healthcare arm of the military. You can work for the federal government in any one of their hospitals. They pay a 20K student loan repayment once you get your RN an...
