    Music in My Heart replied to poundofsugar's topic in General Nursing

    Pet Peeve: Poor Grammar by Nurses

    Music in My Heart replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    Since this is a grammar thread, I'll offer the following correction in the hopes that someone's grammar might be improved. I mean no offense by this and hope that none is taken. That said, the quoted...

    ASN vs BSN

    Music in My Heart replied to whenigrowup's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Pet Peeve: Poor Grammar by Nurses

    Music in My Heart replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    Pet Peeve: Poor Grammar by Nurses

    Music in My Heart replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    To me, poor grammar and usage do reflect poorly on the speaker. What bother me the most are: using words that aren't (e.g. "irregardless" when they mean "regardless" or "irrespective") using...

    Should I go through with it?

    Music in My Heart replied to sweetbeet's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yikes. First off, I'm so sorry that your husband has manifested this horrible condition. My pops was a high-functioning drunk, too, and it impacted our lives very negatively. Part of me wants to...
