Thank you so, so much for posting your work! This is so generous of you! I'm starting Level 3 of my ADN program (OB, Pedi, and Mental Health). The semester hasn't even started yet, and we're being bombarded with e-mails containing homework assignments to be done before day one. Drug cards are the bane of my existence! I only wish there were some way I could thank you! On top of all this, I'm having to move during the first week! The move will save me a ton of money, and I'm very gratefull to the family friend who has offered to share her home with me, so I'm not complaining about that! Moving during a semester is just really difficult! Thank you, again, from the bottom of my heart!

I really like your "Little word, little number; big word, big number trick! That is really helpful! I was just thinking, "Oh yeah, platelet count is pretty big (when you write it out like that), and the number is huge, 150,000 - 450,000"! Thanks for this!

Beth, thank you so much for this article! As a current nursing student who hasn't been in the clinical setting very long, I really found your story extremely reassuring and educational. Thanks to your story, I know I will NEVER take a verbal med order from ANYONE. I'm sure our facility policy, most likely, prohibits such orders, but as I said, I'm very green. I will keep your story in the back of my mind at all times. Thank you again.
