I'm so sorry. Darned nerves!!!! :banghead: Give yourself time to grieve (yup, grieve) then pick yourself up, and try again! At least this time, you'll know what to expect.

Honey, you're gonna cry for another week. Ask me how I know. ;)

You give yourself all the time you need to be broken-hearted. Hey, you nailed both of your PCS's and I KNOW you'll do this next time.

And when you're in Albany next time maybe I'll drive down and we'll have a cup of coffee - I'm in Ticonderoga, just 1 1/2 - 2 hours north, and I do the drive to Albany pretty frequently. We're at least an hour from everything up here.

You'll do it.

Right now you feel like this:

In a couple of months you'll feel like this:

You call if you need to talk. I have no life, anyway - I'm studying for the NCLEX-RN. ;)

You will be too, very soon.

Tbone-Sorry you were not successful this time. It's only natural that you will cry and that's OK.....Do not give up. Give yourself a little time and then get back in there and kick butt and pass the next go around.

Hang in there.....

(( HUGS)) to you T-Bone. The IV push seems to be the one to beat. My friend was also not successful in that lab. My heart goes out to you. Wish you the best in the future. Take it again. I know you will be successful. Much Love goes out to you.:redbeathe

I am so sorry you didn't pass. I feel like this CPNE is a battle and when one of our soldiers gets to the obstacle course and doesn't make it. We all feel for them. Once you dust yourself off, you get back up and you finish. You can do this, the next time your nerves will be in check and that IV push won't know what hit it. You have the biggest support system imaginable. YOU CAN DO THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh no...sometimes rocking nurses do fail it the first time, unfortunately. When you are ready, I do hope you reapply to knock 'em off their socks.

Thank you sooo very much, I will take the time to be broken hearted. I called this morning and they said that I can reaply Thursday, so Thursday I will reaply with one kidney missing because that will be the one I sold to mexico to pay for this bs.
