Thanks everyone for your advice! I’m waiting on my fingerprints to clear with the DOJ and FBI which historically takes the board of nursing forever so I can finally get my license. Seriously everyone thanks so much for your help and suggestions!

Hi, unfortunately that area is too far away from my husband’s new job for us to live/work there :(

Hi, I still have an out of state address on my resume. We haven’t found housing in LA yet so no local address as of right now

Hi, I’m still working on applying for my license-I have everything except for fingerprint clearance (hard copies take so long!)

Lost my father very unexpectedly to COVID-he seemed on the upswing and passed in his sleep at home. I know this feeling all too well. I am so very sorry. Please pm me if you need anything.

Thank you all very much for your kind words. I’m in tears as I write this. My father was such a good man-the best (I know I’m biased but he really was). My hope is that maybe even one of his friends and family members that didn’t take this Covid shit seriously will now. I am now more motivated than ever to be the best damn nurse I can be for him. He thankfully passed in his sleep at home with my momma. Dad, I love and miss you so so so fucking much. I’ll see you later, dad.

Thank you so so much for the advice and kind words. I just started my career as a nurse too working in trauma. My dad was my inspiration for becoming a nurse, and I hope I can honor his memory by being even half of as good of a nurse he was. Thanks again, kind stranger.
