    Dixen81 replied to Bayushi27's topic in General Nursing

    My ex-husband's sister is a Nurse Practitioner in the Air Force. She is about to make rank as Colonel. She has told me that the Air Force has been VERY good to her. They sent her to school to...

  2. How do you encourage rooming in???

    Dixen81 replied to at your cervix's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Makes me think of all of the people who want so desperately to have a child and can't, but then someone like this girl has one and doesn't seem to really want it. How sad. My heart breaks for that...

  7. But I have little kids!

    Dixen81 replied to Tweety's topic in General Nursing

    Absolutely, jadenurse. What I'm trying to get across is that it seems the singles are saying that we parents think we're ENTITLED or deserve special treatment, and that's not what we're saying at...

  8. But I have little kids!

    Dixen81 replied to Tweety's topic in General Nursing

    How would you suggest explaining to the REAL little children why they don't have presents to unwrap on Christmas morning that Santa left during the night while they were asleep? Or did he not leave...

  9. But I have little kids!

    Dixen81 replied to Tweety's topic in General Nursing

    I don't see any hostility in agent's response. And nobody is saying that they are ENTITLED to have the holidays off. I am a student with two grown children, a four year old, and a one year old...

  12. But I have little kids!

    Dixen81 replied to Tweety's topic in General Nursing

    I have to agree with agent on this one...you're ADULTS. The timing of these holidays is most important to CHILDREN (Christmas MORNING, Easter MORNING, Halloween NIGHT, etc.) Let the KIDS celebrate...

    Dixen81 replied to VivaLasViejas's topic in General Nursing

    I'm getting scared now...just how much lifting are you all really talking about? I'm 5'2", 125 lbs. How am I going to lift patients who weigh much more than me? My husband is 6'1", 200 lbs, and I...

  14. But I have little kids!

    Dixen81 replied to Tweety's topic in General Nursing

    In defense of uk_nurse, I can certainly understand where she's coming from. She's not saying she deserves special treatment, she's just reminding singles of the many times throughout the year when...

  15. Contraceptives and Weight Gain

    Dixen81 replied to sunnyside's topic in General Nursing

    A hard man is good to find. ROTFLMAO!!!!! I can't speak for myself, but my daughter hated the shot, always forgot to take the pill, but loves the patch. I wish it would make her gain weight...she's a...

    Dixen81 replied to Tweety's topic in General Nursing

    What a sad sight that must have been, mjlrn. I hope those people never had to spend Christmas like that again. Most of us are so much more blessed than we even realize. Thanks for sharing that....

  19. But I have little kids!

    Dixen81 replied to Tweety's topic in General Nursing

    People who gripe because they have to work holidays ought to stop and count their blessings; they could be one of our soldiers stationed overseas who don't get to be with their families AT ALL....

    Dixen81 replied to dawngloves's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Renerian, What do you do for hospice and is there some type of training that you take? Also, what is the adopt a senior program? Both of those sound like things I would love to do, since I...
