5. I feel like I failed myself, I am so mad at myself:(

   littlehippie replied to tiffany311's topic in LPN to RN

   I was 36 & the same way at the interview. I was sure I wouldn't be accepted into the program. I wasn't a CNA, I wasn't CPR certified, all the things they asked, I didn't have them. I left so...

   I finished with a B, also. I had a B for A&P I, also. Wish I could have made an A, but I'm happy with it, too :) Lana, thank-you for starting this thread! It was great to stay in touch with...

    littlehippie replied to Heather A.'s topic in Ob/Gyn

    Heather, I am so happy this worked out the way it did. What a positive ending! If you hadn't come forward, and there was a pad left in the pt, just think of the devastating consequences for all of...

    littlehippie replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Well, that's good news! In a way, I guess they are getting easier :) Last exam I had 6 questions from the review questions. I'm still trying to read through the chapters, it seems at the midway...

    littlehippie replied to Heather A.'s topic in Ob/Gyn

    You did the right thing by calling. I am like you, and wouldn't have been able to live with myself if I hadn't made the call. Like others posted, we learn through our mistakes. Always take the time...
