1. The HARD Truth for most nurses

   walksfar75 replied to Humaneclowninscrubs's topic in Professionalism

    I didn't realize it was you til I came home and read that your name was Tom. I thought it was tiger(hey, my first name is michael so meeting someone named tiger isn't a stretch). If she had told me your name was Tiger I'd of course said who I was. ...
