Reasoning those two areas interest
me
I love the messy side of the nursing field. I’ve always been interested in that
kind of stuff. I myself have had about 5 surgeries in my lifetime. I have a
pacemaker (complete heart block) so I know what its like to be in a hospital
setting, and having a pacemaker has made me more interested in nursing.
