  1. Did you see this on the Today Show?

    cherokeesummer replied to dawngloves's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    I was wondering the same thing! I have had one miscarriage, my best friend has had two. My sister one, now we all three have beautiful healthy children (one for each of us) but never was IUI or any...

  2. Is this upsetting to anyone else?

    cherokeesummer replied to Gompers's topic in NICU, Neonatal

  4. Letter to Dean??

    cherokeesummer replied to MikeyJ's topic in General Students

    I would probably stay out of it. Even though you wouldn't be mentioning the dismissal, the Dean would probably put 2 and 2 together and get to 4 - that its too much of a coincidence of the letter...

  5. Do you enjoy TV surgical/medical shows?

    cherokeesummer replied to MSJ2007's topic in General Nursing

  10. oral vs. nasal intubation

    cherokeesummer replied to preemieRNkate's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    We had one today but the RN changed it back to orally, made sense! She said that it may have been obstructing some of his O2 b/c his nares were so small. Seemed to do much better once it was oral...

  16. Having a boyfriend while in nursing school....

    cherokeesummer replied to sheridan3456's topic in General Students

    I think it just depends on the person and the relationship. I would imagine starting one at the same time as nursing school could be very difficult. I'm married and have been for 9 years, but it...
