  1. Detox nursing is sucking the life out of me

    Maybe I will help to hear a different perspective. I am just a mom and a RN.. but mostly just a mom who lost her oldest son to an OD in the summer of 2015. My heart broke the day his heart stopped beating. No, it shattered. I have yet to recover. Oh ...
  2. Celebrate Recovery

    Maybe I am coming from a different perspective. I am a mom and a RN who lost her son in 2015 to a heroin OD. I never thought it would happen "in our family." I have overwhelming guilt at not being able to save him. Looking back, he called most of hi...
  3. a day for reflection

    First, congrats on your success! I celebrate your ability to beat the monster of addiction. that being said, I am just a mom and a RN.. but mostly just a mom who lost her oldest son to an OD in the summer of 2015. My heart broke the day his heart sto...
  4. Heroin pandemic

    I am just a mom and a RN.. but mostly just a mom who lost her oldest son to an OD in the summer of 2015. My heart broke the day his heart stopped beating. No, it shattered. I have yet to recover. Oh sure, I get up and go to work. I smile. I say I am...
  5. Holistic Nurses Entrepreneurs

    Wondering if you had considered looking into essential oils particularly in the geriatric population? The nursing home industry is always looking for ways to decrease psychotropic medications and you may want to look into raindrop therapy with essent...
  6. Holistic Nurses, what are your thoughts on GMO's

    I am so glad the Dept of Ag that certifies organic farms is putting us through the hoops we must jump through on a whim, without any evidence at all. Considering the fees, site visits and paperwork involved, it is not an easy process to go through. A...
  7. Holistic Nurses, what are your thoughts on GMO's

    I am a "real farmer" and run a 50 acre CSA. Five acres are set aside as a community garden. We are a small community and it helps to set aside for those in need. It is a u pick area. Right now we are planting for the fall... I also raise range free ...
  8. Holistic Nurses, what are your thoughts on GMO's

    Actually, as an organic farmer I would whole heartedly disagree...but you go right ahead and eat your processed, GMO laced food and I will be glad to provide hospice services down the road....Enjoy your snarky attitudes, really? I am proud that most ...
  9. What is your opinion on getting the flu shot?

    I love how people try and "guilt" others into getting this vaccine EVERY YEAR, with absolutely NO REAL EVIDENCE of its value, efficacy or safety. And if you have ever had a serious reaction, or witnessed a serious reaction, you would see things diffe...
  10. What is your opinion on getting the flu shot?

    The analogy is simple...it is either my body or it is not. I choose not to vaccinate. I don't work directly with patients so I don't risk a vulnerable population. However, with the border wide open that really is a mute point isn't it? Thank you for...
  11. What is your opinion on getting the flu shot?

    I read the inserts and choose not to flu vaccinate. I have had the flu once. Yeah, I felt like crap for a week, but I survived. I stayed home and kept it to myself. It is my body, my choice...it that is good enough for an abortion (I am prolife), the...
  12. Holistic Nurses, what are your thoughts on GMO's

    I would advise you look outside the US for research in this area. It is interesting that the entire country of Russia has outlawed the import of GMO foods...from anywhere in an attempt to protect it's food supply. What does Putin know that our Govt r...
  13. The Dangers of Ignoring "Conventional" Treatment

    After 15 years in the hospice field, I am not so sure the cancer kills the patient or is it the chemo/radiation that kills the patient? Either way the patient is dead. We should be able to choose our own pathway of treatment. I would be very hard pre...
  14. Struggling with grief

    I found journaling helped. Start an online blog...maybe reaching out to others may help. Somehow putting in writing always helped me.
  15. What would you do if you knew someone was actively using

    I am so sorry to hear you are in this bad spot. I can only speak from my own experience. I lost my oldest son last year from an overdose. He was only 30 years old and had been clean a year, then relapsed. Do whatever you have to do to save your frien...
