Default Some good news

Our daughter Susan was accepted into the Nurse Anesthesiology program at USC. The program is not offered at very many schools and they only accept a limited number each year, 16 in the case of USC. She starts this fall so if all goes well she'll have a Masters of Science degree and be a Nurse Anesthetist.

As I said these programs are not easy to get into. First an application, if that passes muster then a personal interview. So you can she why we're just a little bit proud of her. She was working in the ER at UCLA medical center but transferred to the CTICU, that's the ICU heart and lung transplant patients go to after surgery, to gain the experience needed for the anesthesiology program.

Oh, almost forgot. Last month Susan took care of the first hand transplant patient at UCLA medical center. The CTICU was best qualified to take care of her following surgery. Only the 13th hand transplant performed in the U.S.

Okay, I'll stop boring you. Just wanted to share some good news and say how proud we our of our little girl.

Hank, it is never boring to hear of amazing people. I do know that the nursing programs at many colleges can be hard to get into, many have waiting lists of 2-3 years. But to have only 16 openings available. You are so proud and it shows.

It sounds like Susan is a driven young lady and she is reaching for her goals. Be that proud dad and please send her our congratulations !

Congrats to your daughter for all her hard work and to you for raising a fine daughter .I admire what all nurses do and have to put up with from their patients.

I think that she is probably a lot more like you than you think.

I'm sure Lynda will agree with you Tony.

I don't know where Susan get's her drive/motivation from, she has more than Lynda and I combined I think.
