(19,288 posts)5. Graduated in 1988
But haven't practiced for a few years now. Typical back injury, story.
I had a back injury about 7 years ago and had to go to the NICU from L/D. Never thought I would love another area as much as L/D. Happy to have been proven wrong.

(21,024 posts)7. If nurses ran the world
