  3. If you could recommend changes, what would you suggest?

    nurse_kee77 replied to SororAKS's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'd be likely dead if not for mandatory AA. I am a true alcoholic/addict . I would not have made it through this program this far without AA. Not would I have ever gone to AA / NA without PNAP...

  10. Feeling like giving up right now

    nurse_kee77 replied to nurse_kee77's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Turns out I wasn't being as careful as I thought I was. And bottom line is that I'm contractually obligated to know what I'm consuming. I had Dijon mustard in my fridge and I had that twice this week...

    nurse_kee77 replied to nurse_kee77's topic in Nurses Recovery
