Hi all! I am almost through with nursing school and I still cannot get a couple of biggies down in my head. Any advice that you can give would be oh so appreciated! Here goes: 1. acid/base imbalances causes and symptoms (not actual lab values) 2. electrolyte imbalances causes and symptoms (not lab values) Thanks so much!

Oh, you guys are so great! Originally I only received the first post, not so positive, and it was hard to swallow. BUT thenI got the replies from all of you and I just smiled so big - I love the support and the advice. You guys rock! Now.....does anyone have any budgeting or financial advice?

Hi all! I am a nursing student and I will be graduating in a year or so. I am well aware that nursing is not some great paying job but my heart is totally in it. I will be working in Houston, Texas where the pay is pretty good. This is my dilemma: My boyfriend does not have a college education and will probably never make over 15k a year. He is an artist, dedicated to his passion and family, and a wonderful man. I have always imagined him as a stay at home dad eventually and so has he. I am worried about what the future will hold for us. Do you guys think that this is an okay situation - me as breadwinner, etc. or will we be starving? I am happy to own a townhome instead of a house with an average car, etc. just as long as I am happy. Also, he is low maintenance, not at all into fancy things.:uhoh21:
