Yes it's true I passed!!! They are going to let me take the NCLEX and give me those fancy RN letters behind my name. So this is my promise to all my friends I will not be as mean anymore or cry nearly as much. Well, at least after I pass boards maybe I can live up to that promise.

Update on Em's Vision and Nursing School

2008-10-10T14:15:00.000-07:00

Hey friends!! I had to finally update my blog, because I am so excited. First off after a month of hell and 3 surgeries it looks like Emma's eyes are finally becoming less dry and the plugs they put in are working. Hopefully this means we are on our way to finding a way to improve her vision. The specialist said she may not need a Corneal transplant and may just need hard contact lens. This would be such a relief. I just want my poor baby to see!!!
I also had my huge Clinical Competency check off this week. Which this huge ordeal where I had to pick a disease process out of a hat, give a oral presentation off the top of my head with no preparation, write a care plan and then draw a skill out of a hat and do that. No pressure there!!! Well, I am proud to say I passed on the first try. They may actually let me be a "real nurse" in a few weeks!!!

Well all my friends are blogging and I figure I can too. We are on a long car ride home from Florida and this seems like a great idea. Once we are home and everyones back in school we'll see if I keep it up. It would be a great way to keep the family and friends updated on the kids and everything happening on the farm.
