my angels were watching me - Grace grabbed the diapers off the dryer (after diapers they became dust rags) and the vaseline - not the right combination - the medics couldn't understand why I was watching them debride (pull the dead skin off with tweezers) - I wanted to be a nurse - the nerves by then did not hurt - when we got back home in the wee hours - it started hurting and burning - this was the night before we moved into temporary quarters in Kaiserslautern (biggest army housing kaisern/city in Germany) - there was a minor hitch - we lived on the 4th floor (no elevators) - I had to walk a block and go up two flights of stairs to cross the bridge over the autobahn - then two flights of stairs to the huge parking lot - and you guessed it - my class was on the second floor - two round trips a day during the week - I ate lunch at home - every week for six weeks we walked a mile or so to the medics to have the dressings

changed.

I just thought it was normal - I wanted to be a nurse

math kept me out of nursing school

ended up a counselor and social worker

I got my EMT with a 94 and several years later my son beat my score on the state boards
