• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

little prayer request

If anyone can send up a little prayer for me around 2:30 eastern time...I'd appreciate it. I'm getting tested on my ability to use a sterile field and either change a dressing or place a foley cather. I am comfortable with the skills...but the nervousness in that room full of student nurses is very contagious...it doesn't help that the evaluators, who normally smile, start looking at you like you are going to fail. So I am asking that God cover me with peace and calm so that I can get the job done (and a poke at my conscious if I start to forget something).

Thanks.

I'm a little early, but I said a prayer for you. Wishing you well! :hug:

I get to go back and redo part of it...no big deal though because I'm fairly sure that the part I missed had to do with the body part (plastic manikin) that popped of in my hand...the step I missed was the first one after that. Nothing like holding unattached plastic male genitalia in your hand to throw your concentration off.

Praying! And if it makes you feel any better I've had all that fun stuff done to me. I had a catheter a few times. My last kidney stone because of issues they used a type of catheter (can't think of the name) and put it in through my back into the kidney. Which was the worst feeling ever.
