    ABibleStudent, Yes, send your sister a card, she would appreciate it. Happy Nurses week to you, Found Sheep. As you said, it's not for everyone. Sometimes I think to myself "what a crazy way to earn a living" but

    then I think of the patients who depend on us for their care. I am an Oncology nurse and we tend to see our patients come to the hospital over and over. We usually see them through their initial diagnosis and, if the

    treatments don't get rid of the cancer, we see them to the end of their life. We hope and cry with them and their families. It is a stressful job as we tire of seeing people die, especially the young ones. Then, there's the

    JWs who refuse the blood transfusions needed after chemotherapy. It's a shame and it has a great affect, detrimental, on those whose job it is to help keep them alive. Anyway, Happy Nurses week to all nurses.

    Happy Nurse week to you Panhanlegirl. Oncology is rough! Dagney those are kind words. I'm glad a nurse helped during a horrible time of life.

    We have lost some JW's too! My 1st was a new Mom hemorrhaged. I was new to the unit and it took me a while to tell people I'm an ex-jw after that.

    FS: thanks Dagney must say it's a much more satisfying profession then my previous one as a regular pioneer ;)

    Yes, this time you are actually saving lives for real!

    00DOD it made me think of...

    I remember some stupid comments. Like "Why do all this schooling when it won't be needed in the NS?" "You should focus on helping people save there lives forever." I was late one Sunday cuz I was helping in a code with a child and I was told my priorities were off.

    Yes, your priorities WERE off, but now that you've left that nasty little cult I'm sure they're much better!
