   DeeSki replied to MikePLSDCA's topic in General Students

   Hmmm funny but 350lbs is not necessarily that 'fat' that you would lose a hand and arm in the folds. My husband is over 350 but since he is also 6'9" it is well distributed, but yes he is still quite plump/fat. Oh-and he definitely could assume the ...

7. Kowtowing to Instructors

   DeeSki replied to firstyearstudent's topic in General Students

   I have to say my opinions are a little different then most posted so far. I think I can understand what the OP was trying to say. I believe that my school is actually making that transition to a "kinder, gentler" program, so to speak. I am one of ...

9. SHOES: Are Dansko comfortable?

   DeeSki replied to ternerzero's topic in Uniform/Gear

   You definitely have to go try on some shoes for yourself. I saw a lot of negative posts about Nursemates last summer when I was looking. I bought them anyway because they were the only ones in the store that were the style I needed for school (no s...

14. Patients always needing something no matter what.

    DeeSki replied to OliveVinesRN's topic in General Nursing

    I disagree. Maybe the original post was just a vent (that's the way I saw it) but the latter post directed at the person you are writing to is definitely angry in tone and very nasty. I too hope that I won't be as (seemingly) unhappy after 1 1/2...
