Texas is no longer going to recognize the neonatal CNS, so the role seems a little uncertain to me. So confusing!

How I did it: I used blogger.com. I think it's the easiest way to get the design laid out with a minimum of hassle.

How I did it: Over the last few years I've realized my passion for teaching and speaking. The primary problem is that in my current work I have less than three years of experience. I decided that taking my new knowledge of my current career (I'm a neonatal ICU nurse) and delivering it to an audience of my former peers (EMT's and paramedics) would be a winning ticket. This year I presented a talk on survivors of prematurity at our state EMS conference. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I just kept going... There will be times when it's frustrating or discouraging, but I promise you that the ring and the degree will be worth it in the end. Read how I did it…

I reapplied to the same conference as last year, this time with a different topic. I’m in! Scheduled for 11/25.
