Thanks leslie, I'll do that and see what she says.

joe, i saw your thread in the hospice forum, about palliative apn's...
i remember loooooong time ago, me asking about it and sirI is the one who answered me...
except i can't remember her answer.
it was along the lines of getting my apn w/a certification in palliative/hospice care. (???)
why don't you pm her?
i know it was she, who responded to my inquiry.

leslie
