If you could no longer work as a nurse, for whatever reason, what other job or career would you choose? This is assuming that you have only ever worked as a nurse and your degree is strickly nurse related.

I would be a writer, or go back to school and major in English. Or both. :)

I would open a small bookstore-coffee shop... located somewhere warm.... with a view of the ocean or mountain.

I wanna own a really awsome pet shop.
