wow, 18 questions? I'm really not being unsupportive, but I've done college with 3 young ones all at home. Many of us have been in your tough shoes.

These can have some long answers and you may have more questions to the responses... which is why a one on one interview was called for, or phone interview.

I'm sure you'll disagree, but I don't really believe I'll be helping in the end if I fill out your assignment answers in attempt to save you time. If you can make some time, maybe some nurses here will give out a number and do a phone interview and you can jot down the answers?

Good luck
