There are many groups out there for recovery.Keep at it!

i am not sure what other then surgery your recovering from but, i do know that life can throw you a curve ball and you then question ever being a nurse again. i lost my mother a a year and a half ago and i was her health care rep and of course a nurse too so i questioned alot of my choice's even though she told me what she wanted it was hard to watch my 59 yr old mother die when my oldest daughter was preganent with her first great grandson. i made every choice as she wanted and had to get my brother to the hospital from prison so he could tell her good bye so she could go in peace. after all of this happen i had my two nephews my brothers sons b/c his wife was into the meth so we were raising two young children when our kids were 14,19,21 and so in may the boys were returned to the parents and we moved to texas after living all of our life in indiana and i gave up a good job as an adon where i had alot of responsibilty and respect so that i could be with our daughter and new grandson. we arrived in tx june 5th and on june 11th i was in the OR with our daughter while she had a c-section to deliver our first grandson who had passed away at 27 weeks. after all this i took care of her and fell apart myself for about 3 months. i then took a job as a floor nurse in a not so nice nursing home for 3 months, then i worked agency and worked in hospitals and i am very out spoken and stand for what i believe in which lead to me looking for other jobs and i found a good one as a unit manager but on day 2 of my job i was notified bye the welfare my nephews were in foster care and removed from their parents again so that was one of many trips to indiana to ensure the boys were with us. this lead to many changes in life again and i was still trying to deal with all the deaths i had. about 6 months after that i found a nice job caring for a 19 yr old cp patient in his home and loved it. so i adjusted many times over but i kept in mind along with the support of an awesome husband and children i would find my calling again in texas. so i know it is hard in many ways but if you dont give up on you neither will everyone else but you have to let them know you may need a shoulder or support. keep your head up you can do this and the world needs good nurse's like you.
