Emily.


Emily was one of my best friends. We met through a boyfriend of mine and since that day we were the closest of friends. She was sooo fun, caring, loving, happy, outgoing, optimistic.. the compliments could keep coming, i mean she was a really BEAUTIFUL person. I hate the saying, "Bad things happen to good people" because for some reason, it always seems to be true. Emily was 19 years old when she passed away on January 19th, 2011. She died from DIC (Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation) after having a C-section to deliver her baby boy. I received the news at work and I was in complete shock. I remember when I met Emily how excited she was to be having a baby. She bought all the books, read all the magazines, she ate healthier and exercised-- she wanted to be the best mom she could be. The piece of her that was left is gonna be two this upcoming January and he is just LIKE his momma-- always smiling and so loving :) I look at this picture and I still can't believe she is gone. There has been times that I really wanted to talk to her.. hear her laugh or have her cheer me up. I know she's still around though.. looking out for all of us including her son :) Love you, Em <3

I'm BACK!

I am back to blogging!! :) Thanks to Cory (traumanurse), I have decided to jump back on here and write down everything that has happened since the last time I was up here, hmmm.. back in 2010 haha. OKAY, so excuse the horrible grammar but i'm lazy. lol. Let me seeeee.... Well my last post was about my brothers wedding-- it went amazing. They just had their 2 year anniversary the other day :) It was a lot of... conflict and drama between the families but in the end, i guess you can say it was well worth it. Not much else has happened, well i take that back, A LOT has happened but i'll save those stories for another post. NURSING INFO: I have completed a majority of my prerequisites for nursing school at a local community college but the rest of the classes have been put on hold because I AM IN LPN SCHOOL!! I graduate September 5th of this year so NOT TOO MUCH LONGER :D So far, i have really enjoyed EVERY moment of it. That hospital feels like home to me. There has been ups and downs and times when i thought i couldn't do it or i wasn't smart enough but i've pushed myself and i've had patients that have reassured me that being a nurse was what i was meant to do :) This year has FLOWN by and it's gonna be bittersweet graduating because i love school so much but i have plenty more years ahead! Gonna look into finishing up my prereqs this fall semester so i can go ahead and apply for the RN program for May 2013. BETTER pass the PN NCLEX first though! :P
