  7. I'm only 22 years old.

    Roberta88 replied to oncologynurse77's topic in General Nursing

    Anyways, to the OP, I can see that it must be pretty hard to be an oncology nurse and you seem pretty depressed in the field. Maybe you should try a different specialty? I'm sure it couldn't hurt....

    Roberta88 replied to Roberta88's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
