  13. I've had a kidney transplant. Can I become an RN?

    Cilantrophobe replied to S.P.'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Are you asking a rhetorical question? The reason why I ask is because you may find others like yourself in the general nursing forum. You can't honestly believe that you cannot become a nurse because...

    Cilantrophobe replied to avantgauze's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
