Introduction

My name is .... I was born on January 8, 1995 in . I was raise in a single mother household. While my mother worked her butt of to make sure I was well taken care of. My father was absent thru out my life. But I have many father figures in my life. Who gives me the best guidance and always told me to provide for myself don’t depend anyone else. To carry on my own weight as a child to instill it into me. As a child I was always asked what would I like to be when I grow up & I would always say a doctor. Over the years I’ve came to the conclusion that I would be a better Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists than doctor. The thing that made me choosing nursing was my mom. About three years ago she was hospitalized and the nurse was the one that took care of my mother when family was there. They made her stay much better and did everything to make her feel comfortable. But with this degree from Southern I plan attending LSU for my masters. After receiving my master’s degree I plan moving to Texas. I plan to work in a children hospital because they are our future. After about two years of being a CRNA I plan on going back to college to get another degree. I want to be a strong well educated woman that takes care of her self and doesn’t depend on anyone other than God.
