I am currently looking for a way out. Don't get me wrong, I love the nursing part of nursing. I am sick to death of my cohorts, coworkers, other nurses. In 20 years I have found fellow nurses to be intolerant of other nurses, dispassionate, dysfunctional and so many other negative things. I am sick of nurses who think, "theirs" is the only way, or that their fellow nurses are not as good. Of course that is nursing school mentality. Our nursing school instructors force 'reporting' other nurses down our throats. We come out of school with a 'eat our young' mentality and it only gets worse. I discourage any nursing student from continuing nursing school. Become a doctor, they have lots more respect for each other than nurses do.

Well, if you have ever experienced the 'season flu' you would want to get those shots. H1N1 is another strain mutation. Due to the number that have died already, and your being a diabetic, it would be advisable. Don't be swayed by negativity, just protect yourself. Consider going to the CDC site for more information. hope this helps
