  1. Marriage Is over

    MellowOne replied to nurse07's topic in Australia, New Zealand

    Going back to the disrespectful thing...when you jump on a message board and ask a guy if his church group is giving his wife BJ lessons, then yes, that's disrespectful. I'm sure that you already know...

  2. Marriage Is over

    MellowOne replied to nurse07's topic in Australia, New Zealand

    Why is it the tendency of those hostile to Christianity to put words into the poster's post that aren't there? Your post was so filled with errors that I'll have to condense what response I'll grant....

  3. Australian Flag Unwelcome In Florida!

    MellowOne replied to Grace Oz's topic in International Nursing

    \It was a rhetorical question. America is repeatedly painted as the intolerant bad guy when we're actually one of the most tolerant nations on earth. Be well... The Mellow

  4. Australian Flag Unwelcome In Florida!

    MellowOne replied to Grace Oz's topic in International Nursing

    Folks here are correct about these homeowners associations. I've seen people get sued for having an American flag on a flagpole in the front yard. It seems that the flagpole detracts from the...

  5. Marriage Is over

    MellowOne replied to nurse07's topic in Australia, New Zealand

    In context, actually yes it is. In the context that it is a loving husband who understands when a wife isn't feeling well, when she is busy with children, when she has obligations with work or other...

  6. Marriage Is over

    MellowOne replied to nurse07's topic in Australia, New Zealand

    I'm a 3rd degree in TaeKwonDo. I'm also a certified instructor, though I don't get paid for teaching. It's a way to keep in shape (so that I don't become a lard-*** for my wife) as well as a great...

  7. Marriage Is over

    MellowOne replied to nurse07's topic in Australia, New Zealand

    Sorry to hear that. Your man is obviously not fulfilling his duty as a husband. I don't have any quick answers, except to maybe get his fat *** to the dojang and knock some sense into him. Let him...

  8. Marriage Is over

    MellowOne replied to nurse07's topic in Australia, New Zealand

    Children ARE a reason to stay. That is not to say that all couples with children should stay married. In a situation where abuse is present, then there is an obligation to remove the child from the...

  9. Marriage Is over

    MellowOne replied to nurse07's topic in Australia, New Zealand

    Well, here's a man's view: To start, a woman marries a man expecting him to change, but he changes very little. A man marries a woman expecting her not to change, but her change is great....

  10. IL Supreme Court Rules Only Nurses Can Testify on the Standard of Care for Nurses

    MellowOne replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    A condescending tone without actually addressing the statements made is a common debate tactic, albiet an ineffective one. Pardon me if I point out the fact that this has been common in your posts,...

  11. IL Supreme Court Rules Only Nurses Can Testify on the Standard of Care for Nurses

    MellowOne replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Ditto. Start of any shift I get report, check the charts if I have any questions about the history that isn't on the Kardex, check orders, and look up all labs and write them down on my report sheet....

  12. IL Supreme Court Rules Only Nurses Can Testify on the Standard of Care for Nurses

    MellowOne replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Question...are you a nurse? I'm an experienced critical care nurse, and am now House Administrator for a large hospital with the region's top cardiac program. Part of my job is dealing with doctors...

  13. Would you assist in abortions?

    MellowOne replied to Blackcat99's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I would not assist with an abortion. I believe that an unborn child is a human being. Women do have a choice. They can choose to not have sex, or they can choose to use birth control. Be well......

  14. IL Supreme Court Rules Only Nurses Can Testify on the Standard of Care for Nurses

    MellowOne replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    If you were walking through the mall, and suddently went into v-tach, would you want a critical care nurse or an internal med doctor to be the one that helps you out? I'm a House Administrator, and I...

  15. Why a Philadelphia hospital gave in to a racist demand?

    MellowOne replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I'm a House Administrator at a large hospital, and have the pleasure of dealing with families who have issues. Sometimes the issues are legit, and sometimes they aren't. Bottom line is this: When a...

  16. Show Bedside Nurses the Money

    MellowOne replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    The bottom line is...money. Hospitals have tried to cut benefits and limit pay, and now they're paying for it with a nursing shortage. In Cincinnati (I don't live there, but go there for Reserves)...

  17. How desperate is your state for Nurses?

    MellowOne replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Won't happen. Foreign nurses coming to the U.S. have to spend up to two years navigating the immigration and labor bureaucracies. Part of that involves having their college transcripts reviewed by...

  18. What is your biggest nursing pet peeve?

    MellowOne replied to ferfer's topic in General Nursing

    My biggest pet peeve, Charge nurses who try to refuse every patient that you want to send to their floor. "Why do we have to take this patient? Just because his hip is broken and we're an ortho...

  19. Hello everybody i am kinda confused about which school to go to please help

    MellowOne replied to nurs2be2's topic in General Nursing

    I'd recommend getting an Associates Degree first, and then getting your BSN later. You can start making nurse pay with the ADN, and then work toward your BSN at a hospital that has tuition...
