Dear kim,
Dear H,It is so good to hear from you, again. You have been following me for some time, since May 2013. In that time you have accomplished so much. With your Safe Practice expiring in August, I can see how you might be concerned. But, do you have an exam date before that?
Hearing your story I can understand how you would feel depressed. You have accomplished many great things; passing the RPN on the first attempt shows that you are still, “a bright and sincere student.” The difference is that you are a new mom, now, and your body is doing two things: healing, and sending all your energy into the life and preservation of your baby. That is bound to make some changes. It has not changed how bright or sincere you are. It has simply changed your priorities and where you spend you time and energy.
As a nurse, you know, healing takes time. As a nurse you know the human body requires energy for all its processes. It is time to learn to be kind to yourself and allow those processes to happen, over time.
Your identity has changed from a maiden to a mother, but you are still H!
I thank you for telling me the truth. And I am taking what you have said, “i don’t have enough money to buy package for celban.” As a result I am making some changes, and they will be announced over the next two weeks. So, H, please be kind to yourself. Be with your baby. They are only small for such a short time. And everything is so wonderful when they are so little and experiencing the world for the first time!
I know that your path has been hard, but you can do hard things: you just gave birth! 🙂
I hope that my plans will benefit you. So, please keep an eye out for the emails I send out over the next two weeks. Then write me back, to tell me what you think!
Sincerely,
Kim
Dear Kim
