School is out for SUMMER:)


Hi All,
It has been an adventuresome month! I have completed my first semester of Nursing School and I got an A in my classes. Whoopee! About 1 week after I finished school, my Grandma and I flew up to Asheville to watch Mike (my brother in law) graduate from collage. Congrats Mike for a job well done! We were also able to be there for the Graduation/Baby Dedication party. It was great fun to spend time with the family.


After returning from the trip to North Carolina I started my new job at All Children's Hospital. For those of you who don't know All Children's services 17 counties in the central Florida area. There is only one other children's hospital in the state which is located in Miami. The reason I took this job was 1) Because I wanted to work extra hours in the summer (I am still working for Woman's Health Associates 16 hours a week) 2) Because I wanted to see what it was like working in health care for Children. Right now my position is Unit Secretary, but there are two Patient Care Technicians who are graduating from Nursing School in December, so some positions will probably be opening up on our floor next year. Since Hospital hours are 24-7 I have been working some night shifts and some day shifts. My poor body doesn't know when to stay up and when to go back to bed, so it is kinda crazy.


For an update on my cousin's husband (Kevin) his last Chemo treatment is Friday (6/12/09). He has done well through the Chemo and Radiation treatments. The big test comes in a few weeks when they test to see if the tumor has decreased in size. Your prayers are coveted for Kevin and his family.

Thanks!
