  8. Infertility/ discounts or good insurance

    Chinesedog replied to mimiluvscakes's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Chinesedog replied to mimiluvscakes's topic in Health, Stress Management

    hmm, vintage post. I just joined and the posts are ancient, but I see a reply from about a month ago. I will say that the best way is to quit being a nurse and work for Bank of America. their version...
