Yes, although I'm not there yet it sounds sensible to me to finish it..when you look long term especially. I think that you would regret it.

has anyone used the AMH book. It looks really good but dear at $160 but I would prefer an aussie one, and would buy it only once not once a year.

would be double pricey for me as I don't have an iphone. LOL. but I will look for the book in the uni book shop. Thanks

Hey Carol, I do care...love is endless and I have a gazillion gallons of it for just you alone!!! I know what you mean about caring about those journals etc that were yours alone and your thoughts and yes years and years of them...it cannot be replaced and the anger and sadness you will feel will be there for a while but I am so glad that you are looking at it in this new way. It will be so much better for you. Regret is hard to live with...I, as you may remember, am taking an enormous step for me and leaving my family and I have moments where I think..what am I doing? I am regretting it before I even have done it..I find I have to mentally look at my situation and say it is for the best for me, for my husband, for the kids...the guilt just kicked in again..but I need to do it..I have to somehow move on...I am like you not materialistic so will not take much with me..have learnt to not care about too much...what if it was all lost in a fire..the most important thing you have is you, your brain, your heart, your memories..sorry waffling now..but always know that I do care!!

Hi Carol, how are you today? Did you burn your anger, hatred and hurt? Love and fairy kisses. Cathy

Oh Carol, I am so, so, sorry!! It is too much!! She shouldn't have done that, but she did! You can't change that and you are grieving for sure, just like you would a favourite person who has died. So go ahead and scream into a pillow, break some plates/glasses but do something for me...as I know you are a writer...write it all down how much it hurts, the anger, the hate even for what your mum did and then set a match to it and let it burn away. Sending you my love and energy. Cathy

Hi does anyone know what kind of book I should buy that covers all the info we need for the medications we give. They all seem to be American or very expensive. Have tried to get the MIMS from local doctor and my work but they aren't available. Tanks

Wait till you smell a stage 4 pressure sore...something you never forget!!!

Hi what is a burrette? How do you get a copy of the MIMS without paying a forturne. Have asked a couple of times at the doc's office and they say "next time."

Scuse my ignorance but what the heck does (bump) mean? Heard it often and still don't know?

Stanhope is the one I work for in Sydney. They are based in Melbourne and I can't fault them.

Stanhope health care services is the best agency!!! Go with them. http://www.stanhope.com.au

Hi Carol, how did you go in the new mental health unit. I have to do a clinical in mental health for my uni course. My first prac is aged care.

You do have to get all your vaccinations done before you go on your first clinical.

Ok..as far as I know we are not tested for taking drugs...sounds like an american idea to me. We do get tested on what we learn about giving drugs which we call medicines over here...are you from America?
