Hello!
I wanted to introduce myself. Some might know me from frugals (been a big fan of RR's for a while now :)--can't wait to go shopping on your site--it is like a Toys R Us for the medically inclined/interested). I want to DEEPLY thank tangent for posting this link--I wish I had known about this a long time ago!!! (like when y'all were mailing out the cdroms :) ).
I am eager to learn and spent MANY hours last night reading, cutting, pasting, etc the site.
I am not a doc or a nurse or really anything useful for here (first aider, red cross-er, have a degree in psychology, but even that is pretty much useless :D ). I am afraid I will be more deadweight for a while (unless you want the "Dr. Mom/Dear Abby" type stuff hee hee). I apologise but am happy to be here!!! Eventually (after the kids are grown) I will probably be pursuing something in the medical arena, or at least related. I have been fascinated by this sort of thing since childhood (I used to keep a bag of those first aid and emergency pamphlets in my room since I was about 8 years old and would read them for fun....kinda weird headed kid, I reckon. :D ). I had longed to go to med school, but need to raise my babies first :) ! I figure the more I learn now, the more I become familiar with terms and ideas, the easier further medical training will be. Besides you never know when you might need to have a bit of first aid knowledge in a pinch!
