One day I woke up and realized I'm not a baby nurse anymore. I'm not even a young nurse. I'm a real adult who has now been doing this for years, and I'm definitely expected to know what I'm doing at all times. And that's fucking terrifying.

Dear 16-year-old me
Dear 16-year-old me. There's going to be a new set of Star Wars movies. Don't watch them. They ruin everything.
And wear sunscreen. Check for moles. Don't go tanning. Be aware of your skin.
are you trying to SCARE ME? AHHH!!!!!!!!! Melanoma is coming for me! Oh gosh, the longer I watch it the scarier it gets! Oh no, I'm pale, have ten thousand moles, and I have a family history! Gah! And I already had skin cancer. Also, I like the ginger guy the best.
Excellent advice. I can't believe that kids are still going to tanning salons these days. What are their parents thinking?!

Will post and share.
ReplyDeleteI watched melanoma kill a previously healthy 40 year old female.
It wasn't pretty.
Thank you for sharing. This moved me and motivated me to pass it on.
