So Proud

Oh tiger- congratulations! This is awesome. This journey is amazing isn't it? What an adventure that none of us saw coming. Sometimes I find myself wishing to be at the end- but everything in between thus far has always benefited me, in one way or the other. I have never experienced this much stress in my life, but each day I get through I feel stronger, and just in awe of the people I get to witness going through this. You are all people I would have judged so harshly, and had I not fallen the way I did I wouldn't have met so many incredible people. It's beautiful really the compassion and empathy I've developed that I only thought I had before. Keep it up!

I understand. I'm actually grateful for the entire experience. I so needed a life style change. I will always be grateful. From now on I intend to protect everything that is important to me and that dam sure includes my nursing license. Best of luck to everyone seriously...

I talk to my monitoring agent all the time. I'm very OCD in making sure she receives all my forms. I did the background check on 7/9. All I have left is an assessment by an addiction specialist. That's due 3 months before reinstatement. I'm really nervous about that. Idk why. I've been sober 1 year and 10 months, so I'm doing something right! I'm just praying I get to nurse to again. Anyways... I love reading when ppl succeed and get reinstated. I need inspiration right now!

I once asked my CM "Do people really get out of this program" Ha she's probably really sick of me by now out of 400 clients she knows me by my first name.. Wouldn't want her job for anything. Wish me luck with this job please I really don't have to look much further right now down to my last penny.. I'll get back to surgery one day but for now this job is 2 miles from my house and I used to work with these folks 10 years ago kind of ironic.. Hang in there it's your destiny.
