I just finished nursing school...thanks!

7 I've posted on this site a few times, but mostly spend my time lurking. It's a great site and I've really enjoyed the insights I've gained from reading the stories and comments you have all posted.

I posted one time, when I was about to start nursing school. I'm a single mom of three with a very limited support system. I really had no idea how I was going to do it, but I got so much support and encouragement from you all and I want to say thanks. It helped to to beleive that I could really do it.

I'm also deeply grateful to the nurses I met during clinicals who took the time to show a scared, clueless nursing student how to do a skill. I realize what a gift it is for a busy nurse, to take a few minutes away from her work to share her expertise and advice with a novice nurse. For all of you who have done this, please know it is appreciated and inspires us novices.

thanks, now on to the nclex.....! Last edit by Joe V on Aug 5, '12
