Why I Chose Nursing and Continue to Choose Nursing

A noble goal if ever there was one, Ms Edelman. How far are you in your journey to become a Nurse Practitioner? I wish you a speedy yet comprehensive path on your way to opening your own (I'm assuming) FNP clinic. Good luck and keep us posted, please.Jaime

Your story is very inspiring,,very nice! You started with the right reasons so there is no way for you not to succeed with your nursing career! A lot of people I know chose the path of nursing because it’s their parent’s choice or because it’s the trend..really! So what happened to them now? They’re not practicing their profession maybe because it’s not their calling...

Thank you for sharing your story with us. It was vividly written and well-organized.We have added another great nurse to our ranks now that you've joined the profession!

Very inspiring...Awesome goal! Thanks for sharing.

Amazing! Everyone should have good and affordable care!!!!!!!!!!!!N. O. W! ( I wish!!!!!!)

This is an inspiring story!

Your story is what gives nursing such a warm, friendly and caring reputation. There may be times when nursing seems, well, less than glamorous and we aren't depicted in the best light, but I think we all know that our calling/career is all about helping others. We definitely need more nurses like you, and I hope to read more about you in the future!

Inspiring and a great story! Makes me want to work even harder to make a difference.

i really salute your story and you really are going to make a great nurse. in my country, gone are the days when nursing was a profession that the average person wanted to get into because of the desire to help people and make the healthcare system a better place. More and more people are doing it for the money or because they feel like doing it, but they lack this passion thta you have for it genuinely. i am also an aspiring nurse and i hope to one day share such a touching, yet great story.
