Let's Start Here!!

So, there are actually quite a few nurses that have been (or are going to be) banded so I thought I would be the first to post a thread here.

Let's start by introducing ourselves here.

Name: Jess

Where you work (unit): Operating Room

When were you banded/when you plan to be banded: Hopefully October

Anything else you want us to know: I LOVE photography and scrapbooking/crafting. I have 2 kids 11 & 13 and have been happily married for almost 16 years (November).

I wonder if any of the nurses that posted before are still doing good with the band.
