  16. Help...husband discouraging me :(

    Sisyphus replied to Faye1's topic in General Nursing

    I have to wonder if you guys are delusional. I began nursing in my mid 40's and I tell people it was the very worst mistake of my life. Because I made such a crucial change late in life I find that...
