    NurseGuy_in_06 replied to kjt2004's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    NurseGuy_in_06 replied to wannabee's topic in General Nursing

    I agree. I feel punch-drunk from all of the hits I have taken for my beliefs. I had been enjoying sharing ideas but if this is the true nature of this web site I can find other things to do with my...

    NurseGuy_in_06 replied to wannabee's topic in General Nursing

    NurseGuy_in_06 replied to wannabee's topic in General Nursing

    NurseGuy_in_06 replied to CCU NRS's topic in General Nursing

    First, after I am dead I don't care. Second, you can pray for me all you want while I am alive. And third, praying for the dead is too late. My advice is say all the prayers you want just say them...

    NurseGuy_in_06 replied to S. Stell's topic in General Nursing
