33 years ago today I completed my last exam in my ADN in nursing program and embarked on my nursing career.  I had a 10 year plan that took and abrupt turn this very night 33 years ago because I also met my husband that night.  My plan was to leave my home town to move to Indianapolis and continue my education getting a BSN and specialize in psychiatric nursing because I was very fascinated by the mind and how it works.  I moved back to my home town after working in Indianapolis for only 1 year to marry the man that I met that night.  My continuing education was delayed by 15 years due to marriage and 2 children but God really did put the desire to learn in my heart so I went back and got my first BS but it was in management and not nursing.  God also through some of my own health challenges in their to lead me to pursue a Master’s degree and Doctorate in Natural Health.  Then final in 2013 I completed my BSN and then went on to get a Master’s in nursing education.  When I decided to surrender my path to God I was able to find my what God had planned and that is where my joy and happiness were found.  Raising 2 great children and having a husband that always supported my educational pursuits which has allowed me to accomplish all of these things.  My nursing career has lead me into teaching patients how to be healthy through Cardiac and Pulmonary Rehabilitation.  I continue to embrace what is coming next in my journey and pray for God’s wisdom to make correct choices.
