Volunteer Nurses
**Kimberly W, RN
Baton Rouge, LA**
Five volunteer nurses from all over the country, myself in the middle, staging at FEMA tent city in Baton Rouge, Louisiana in response to Hurricane Katrina. We were the first nurses allowed into the city after the storm, and assisted in reopening and treating patients in the Emergency Room at Touro Infirmary in New Orleans' garden district.

I'm thinking about travel nursing starting in January 2007 sometime. Wondering if there were a few people, that like to have fun that also might also be interested?

"Cash, check or charge?" I asked after folding items the woman wished to purchase. As she fumbled for her wallet I noticed a remote control for a television set in her purse.
"Do you always carry your TV remote?" I asked.
"No," she replied. "But my husband refused to come shopping with me, so I figured this was the most evil thing I could do to him."
