TyRANTasauras Regina: The further adventures of a retired ER dinosaur. I'm just wandering aimlessly. I'm in no hurry

All done!
************************************************
I completed my BSN in 2011, 34 years after finishing my diploma program. I was a dinosaur then, but have now retired to pass my title of world's oldest nurse still working at the bedside on to someone else. May they have the strength to carry on.

43 years as an ER nurse have taught me that people are still either sick or stupid, with an emphasis on stupid with a large dose of entitlement.

This entire blog is a work of fiction. I make up the most entertaining shit, don't I?
