annie007 0 Posted October 1, 2010 Count me in among the nursing crowd! I am a clinical educator in ICU / progressive care / acute care here in NC. Betsy, I agree with your point. I have always taken better care of everyone in my life than I have of myself. Now, it's time to focus on my health! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cwm812 11 Posted October 1, 2010 Isn't it interesting how many of us have nursing backgrounds? My therapist has pointed out more than once that those of us who are caretakers often care for others at our own expense....I know that definitely factored into my own obesity. I don't think it's just nurses...it's all the health care professions! I'm a long-time med tech, who now supports the laboratory information system at a large university hospital. I'm from central Pennsylvania. Cindy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TN_girl21 1 Posted October 1, 2010 I'm from Cleveland, TN (still here). It's about 30 miles NE of Chattanooga. It's definitely growing!! I'm a student (even though I'm taking this semester off because I'm so burned out on school) and I own my own business, which is a ladies shoe boutique with handbags and jewelry too! I'm also a wife, and hopefully a mother one day! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
