I started taking classes in 2012 got into nursing school in 2014. Graduated in 2016 all while working full-time in lending and part time at the hospital as an aide. The training was a weekend program. It was a very hard nut to crack but I received my RN degree at age 56. It was hard at first. Bedside nursing is very tiring but I have stuck with it. You're never too old to work in this field. It is demanding but the emotional reward is there. Don't know how much longer I will work but I have a part time med surg job 3 days a week for 8 hr shifts. This is the goal i worked so hard for. Its so wonderful to have 4 days off per week to do what you want.

TIA!

Comforting others:
When someone tells me bad news regarding their health, I say everything I am supposed to say (I’m sorry to hear that, I’m here for you, etc) EXCEPT “everything is going to be ok”. Because I can’t guarantee that and I really don’t know if everything is going to be ok. I was taken aback recently when a friend told me I am calloused and cold-hearted for not being able to say those words. Is she right? Should I start saying this for the purposes of providing comfort only??
