CrunchRN replied to 0.adamantite's topic in Disaster Preparation

Extremely Overweight Nurses

In monitoring program (DMU) 4 1/2 years sober and screwed up!

CrunchRN replied to RNDMU/PNAP's topic in Nurses Recovery

I'm not a nurse anymore. I'm a cashier! Yay!

CrunchRN replied to dirtyhippiegirl's topic in Nurses Recovery
