June 14, 1986 - Hong Kong It was a very pleasant stay in hot steamy Hong Kong, but quite a culture shock after being in China. Hong Kong is fast paced with a British flavor combined with Chinese. The 100-year treaty with Britain will expire in 1997, so many wealthy and professional people are leaving… Continue reading Nursing Tour of China – Part 5
Beijing, Saturday, June 7, 1986 We flew to Beijing this morning so I was up early at 5 a.m. The propeller plane was pretty smooth until it made a roller coaster type landing which gave me severe motion sickness.

Junior in College of Nursing - Fall Quarter, 1975 What I thought would be my most difficult quarter academically with 18 hours of class, turned out to be one of my most enjoyable quarters. All my teachers were outstanding, and I especially enjoyed Nutrition and Pharmacology (learning about all the medications). I had clinical in… Continue reading “Real” Nursing Begins!

James 1:5 After my trip to Europe in 1978 with my three outfits as suggested by Arthur Frommer, I decided that was just a little too light to travel comfortably.
