I so agree! Besides your being so generous by making and gifting the blankets, your posts give me info that I can always use.


Didn't I read where you are from a family of doctors?


Thanks,

You guys are so sweet. You
You guys are so sweet. You really are giving me a big head. A sincere thanks for the encouragement because I do love to learn and share what I find out.

I do enjoy teaching and currently teach NRP (neonatal resuscitation) and STABLE (a course sort of about what to do after resuscitating an infant--how to stabilize them). I would love to teach at the university level and, even though I am old (57), I want very much to get my PhD one day--but it will have to be after we get Katherine (daughter) out of PA school.

I am a neonatal nurse practitioner and babies have always been my first love. I love the challenge in getting them better and back to their parents asap and I love educating the parents.

I have learned some about other areas over the years, because I am a nerd ;-) and love all things medical.

Also, my dad was head of neurology at LSU for about 30 yrs and loved to teach. My mom was an ER nurse full of stories and was one of the early BSN graduates (from Duke). My older sister is a psychiatrist. My daughter is in Physician's Assistant (PA) school and will, hopefully, graduate in May.

But really posting is selfish because it brings me such pleasure to be part of this community. You guys always make me feel better. And I hate cancer with a passion and would do anything at all to help others in the same boat. I pray that the explosion of research going on around us will soon end in better treatments and an end to this dreadful disease.

I just have to echo what

I would
like to also add my thanks to Cynthia for the many interesting articles and just general knowledge from the health field. So many have helped me through this journey. I don't know what or how I would have done without so many supporters.

I agree with all the ladies, Cynthia
You are a wealth of information. It's great to have our own resident healthcare professional right here on this board. Sometimes all we need is just hearing that a symptom or side effect is normal--or that someone else has experienced it, to feel calm again.

So much of this crappy disease is mental--especially after treatment ends--and I am so thankful for you and all the wonderful people here whom I can turn to when I need help, a kind word, encouragement or just an ear to listen to me rant.

Hugs, Renee

Yes, Thank you Dear CypressCynthia!
I can't say anything else that everyone else hasn't said. Thanks again.

xoxo,
Jean
