Daughter is now an RN

[Rob Cunningham]

Our daughter took her state boards on Saturday afternoon. After an incredibly long 48 hour wait, she was notified that she passed. She has a part time job lined up at the hospital where she has worked as a nurse's aid while going to college. In the fall she will return to college to pursue her Bachelor's degree in nursing while continuing to work weekends. Then possibly on to a Master's degree. She has worked very hard through her first two years of college maintaining a 3.85 GPA. We are very proud of her.

Congratulations to her and to her parents!

Nursing is a fantastic career both in its contribution to people's lives and in its job security.

Give her a pat on the back from all of us!

Great news Rob!
My wife is a nurse and the Associate Dean at URI. It is a wonderful...rewarding...but tough profession. It is also one of the most misunderstood and in general unappreciated...until you or a loved one gets sick.

[Phyllis Meyer]

Please tell your daughter we are proud of her! What a wonderful accomplishment!

Its a good profession, although difficult, and your daughter is taking the right step in continuing on to a BS in nursing. Many states now, and more in the future, will require the advanced degree.

Nurses in my family: ex-wife, 2 SIL. All good nurses; there can't be too many

[Mitchell Andrus]

Very nice. Wish her well for all of us.

Congrats to you and your daughter! It is one of the most unappreciated professions IMHO.

I have a sister who is a nurse-practioner. She is who I want to talk with when I have a serious medical problem.

[Steve Schlumpf]

Congrats to you and your daughter!

My sister is an RN - has been for many years. Anytime I need the straight scoop on anything medical, I can ask her and count on the info being right. It's nice to have an RN in the family!

[Jim Becker]

Congratulations to you and your daughter!

[Joe Pelonio]

Let me add my congratulations too! It seems that these days that's one of the few jobs with good pay that's still in great demand, best of success to her.

[Rob Cunningham]

Thanks for all the congrats everyone.

Joe, you are right about the good pay. She's starting for more per hour than I make after 27 years as a Tool and Die Maker.

[Nate Carey]

Rob, you provided her with a sturdy foundation and she has built well on that foundation.
