Added to the list. Now I'm confused from the things I've heard. What to really go with..... Sketchers seem to be a pretty popular choice for comfort, but when I heard about the Asis running shoes & walking on air, it really caught my attention. N...

I heart OR Nurses. :redpinkhe No matter how anyone may want to argue it up & down, I could never not see it as real nursing. Takes a special type at that.
One of my fav responses thus far. A lot of very good ones, from freedom of speech to one of the many underlying purposes this forum was initially created for. And some people just love to argue &/or be know-it-alls. I say drown out the ones who ...
