Pediatrics

6:00 am - alarm jolts me awake and I hit snooze and pretend I dont have to get out of bed. It's storming outside and is so dark, making it almost impossible to get out of bed. 6:10 am - I finally will myself to get up, get cleaned up, and start the coffee. Last night's Aashna decided to be nice to future Aashna so lunch is already packed. I take the opportunity to sit around and drink my coffee even more slowly today before I get ready and head out the door. 7:10 am - start driving to Dayton…

oh how i want to be a pediatric nurse

Children under five years old see their doctor at least once a year, and the opinion of a physician often carries more weight with parents than that of a teacher or counselor.

From the girl who had the choice and capabilities of going down either road, and why I will always choose nursing.

I have worked in Pediatrics for over 20 years. My education and experience in Western medicine has been invaluable. I know where it excels and where it has its limits.
