Ms. Marla, you made me cry:( I can totally relate to your post...It was so beautiful, and explained exactly how it is when something bad happens to a geriatrics patient that we grow attached to. My friend was taken away early because of Alzheimers......

I know, I know, I'm a little (well alot) late on the conversation, but I just wanted to give you, Ms. Marla, my respect and luck As a pre-nursing student, I look up at experienced nurses (like you!!!) like gods......I wish everyone else could see th...

Worthless CNA? I am a CNA and will disagree with that. We may do laundry, change Depends, bathe ppl who can't do it themselves, but far from worthless. No matter how thin you slice bread there's always two sides:) My nurse manager is actually quite n...

LOL, SIGN ME UP!!!! John 3:16

You would think that most ppl would know what they want to do (espescially nursing!!), but maybe those who ask "Should I be a nurse?" are confused and need help. They need an explanation on a pro-con basis. (You get punched, hit, cursed, puked on, po...
