Disappointing News

Well I just got news this morning that I will not be going to Singapore after all! Earlier this morning the country had 4 confirmed cases of H1N1 flu and the Tan Tock Seng Hospital is not longer taking students. Particularly international students.

Currently the other two nursing students who were scheduled to go are still going. Their clinical placements were in the Johns Hopkins Oncology unit, which is run separate from the hospital. Therefore, the unit is still monitoring the situation, but is allowing them to come.

Definitely a disappointment! However, I feel that the Lord's leading is very clear. Throughout the ups and downs of not being sure if we were going I kept praying that His will be done and that He would place me where He can use me the best.

I am currently waiting to hear back from the school about where my new clinical placement will be (here in the Baltimore/DC area). Once I know I will update you all again!

Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers!

Checking In

Hello Everyone!

It has definitely been a while since I updated my blog. I am attempting to resurrect this space prior to traveling to Singapore to complete my final clinical practicum for nursing school on June 5th. There is more information to come and notes about my Singapore adventure!
