Hi everyone!
I am a new user, and wanted, first to say HI!!
Secondly, I wanted to share a disheartening experience. Last week, I was getting my vaccinations done so that I can start my clinicals, which start next week!!! I can't wait, and I am so excited to start my path to becoming an RN. Anyway, I was in the office getting the shots, and I got a little nervous, as it has been a while since I have had any kind of injection. the MMR killed, and I kinda said "ouch" or something. I also got a little sweaty and weak. The nurse was so mean to me! She said "YOUR going into nursing!!! I hope that you're going into research." I couldn't believe it! I have been working so hard in my classes and putting my whole being into becoming an RN and this witch just says something like that! So I started to cry, and the she started lecturing me as to why, I guess because I was crying, that I would be too sensitive to be a nurse! I was so discouraged! I feel better, now, but I just couldn't believe her attitude. (I had also had a terrible day that day, so it didn't help!)
Am I crazy to think that I can really do it???
