Almost 3 years ago, Cori came home for the week-end. During the course of her visit, she told us that she knew she had a great degree (Business Marketing from ACU) & she had a great job, but she felt called to do something different. She wanted to pursue a nursing degree. Tommy encouraged her, saying that life is too short to do something that isn't a "fit" for her.
So began the journey of the last couple of years. She checked into several different programs, began to take prerequisites & filled out applications to schools. Upon completing the necessary courses to be qualified, she was accepted into TCU's Accelerated Nursing program. The program started the beginning of May last year. It's been an intense 15 months, but today is GRADUATION DAY!
She was privileged to do her summer internship in the NICU at Cook Children's Hospital in FW. It seems like the perfect fit for her & she has accepted a job there.
I am very thankful for her husband, Will, who has been supportive throughout the whole process. He's cooked lots of meals & done lots of chores for her while she was studying or at the hospital. Hats off to him for his part in helping her make this dream come true!
