  2. VENT: Moldy roommate

    Soup Turtle replied to love-d-OR's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

  10. Sheez! She's back and venting AGAIN!!

    Soup Turtle replied to missrose's topic in General Nursing

    Soup Turtle replied to douladi's topic in Nursing Career

  19. A classmate is going to QUIT! Please help...

    Soup Turtle replied to kukukajoo's topic in General Students

    Other than offering support and encouragement, I don't see what you can do. If she's 40ish, she's been around the block and knows about making her own bed and lying in it. Don't let her distract you...
