  1. Nurses/Students: How often do you cry?

    I'm an ADN nursing student in my final semester. I think I failed my first exam on Monday. I had a little cry afterward when I got home. It's no big deal...helps to relieve the stress. Now I'll go get...

    My mom wanted me to have an abortion and when I wouldn't follow through on her wishes for that she stopped talking to me entirely. I then moved in with my dad. He was much more rationale about the...
  5. Paying for Nursing School

    I don't know how you feel about debt, but I know that I don't like to have unnecessary debt (and my living expenses while I'm in school are unnecessary debt, in my book). I am a 32 year old female but...

    Removing every last nit is definitely the way to go! My daughter caught lice in grade school and her long hair was a nightmare to get nits out of. We spent so much time picking nits out of her hair...

  8. Nursing school made me fat!!!

    Nursing school didn't make us fat - eating crappy food too often and not exercising makes us fat. I just started my second semester of nursing school ten pound heavier than before school and I vowed...
  9. school and work

    Good luck! You'll make it if you want to!! I just want to add that I am a non-traditional student in nursing school and I have to work a traditional job. I work from 8:30-5:00 Monday through Friday...

    What will push me to obtain a higher degree is my own personal dreams and motivation. I am in school now to obtain my associate degree. I fully plan to go back and get my BSN just after graduation and...

    Kudos to all the nurses at St. Vincents in Toledo, OH 14 years and 2 months ago!! And all the other OB nurses who've responded with kindness and compassion to other young mothers throughout the world....
  13. Disturbing incident in triage .....

    Oops! This was for Kstec! You sound like you are doing an amazing job of raising your son! I am definitely of the mindset that many of us in society overmedicate in general and I don't like to see...

  16. FAKEBEE ROCKS!!! You said it all and I could say it no
  17. Complete and total disregard for Visiting Hours! (vent)

    You all have just opened my eyes to what sounds like a mess (sometimes). I am just a student and I don't start clinicals until August so I've not witnessed visitors in my area yet, but from the sounds...
  18. HepB question

    This post is very interesting to me since I just received my second dose of HepB yesterday afternoon and I am scheduled to get my third dose 6 months later, not 11 weeks later. Hmmm, I wonder why the...
  19. Police officer or RN

    I originally thought this was your OWN debate about what career to choose, but this is your son's life, not yours. For God's sake, let him choose his own career without interfering. It really isn't...
  20. ADN programs

    I'm not sure where he is in Michigan, but I don't believe there's a waiting list at Mercy College of Northwest Ohio. It's a great school too. A little pricier than the other schools in Northwest Ohio,...
  21. financing school 401k

    Tapping into your retirement account is a very bad idea. Go for government loans. There is really no good reason to use your retirement account for anything other than your retirement unless you...

  23. School Fulltime and working Fulltime?

    It's doable as long as your job schedule and your school schedule fit together well. I am in a night and weekend track and work full-time. I don't carry a full load of nursing credits though, usually...
  24. Whats to Enjoy about Nursing?

  25. Does anyone else see discrimination? Long Post but please read!

    I am appalled that this ever happened and I think you need to get mad and do something about it. At the least, that hosptial should pay for their discrimination. I wouldn't ever want to work there,...
