Aw, thanks. It really feeds me.
Exactly, on the nursing. While I'm not doing it now - the only thing I truly miss is being able to help others. When I was working at the Veterans Hospital as a student - my favorite thing to do was to sit with the Veterans who had ZERO visitors - and just chat. You'd be shocked at how many folks had no one, just no one (actually, you probably wouldn't be) - and how the smallest gesture could make the biggest differences. That's what I miss.
