No Regrets

The Bitter Sweet End

Monday marked the end of a decade for me, it was my last day at Hays Med. I started at Hays Med while I was in high school. I have transitioned my way through many different departments there and have gained tons of experience. In August, God started calling me into something I NEVER thought I would be doing, youth ministry. I took a job at our church as the youth director. It has been so rewarding and I have enjoyed every minute of it. Those teenagers are going to keep me young for sure!!! Anyway, I will ALWAYS be a nurse at heart and and I felt a HUGE sigh of relief when I finally made the decision to quit. I really want to do what God is calling me to do, youth ministry, and being a doula. My doula business is also growing at a fast pace. There really isn't much I enjoy more than providing support to families during their birth experience. God has also opened another door for me, It is looking like I will be able to full fill another dream, teaching childbirth education classes in Plainville.

While I am going to miss working with all of my nurse friends, I am excited to see all of the things God is bringing into my life. I know I have made some true amazing friends with my nursing career and I plan to continue to foster those relationships.

Thank you to all who taught me everything I know as a nurse, to all who put up with my obsessiveness, to everyone who allowed me to care for them in their time of need, to my husband for allowing me to follow my dreams, and to God for giving me so many blessings and for showing me the way.
