I don’t even know how to caption this photo. The I don’t even know how to caption this photo. There has never been so much emotion behind one of my photos before. Yesterday was my last day of clinical. The next time I step into an OR I will be a CRNA. 

I have so much to say yet am speechless at the same time. The last few years have been so. freaking. hard. 

It’s always been difficult for me to feel proud of myself. I tell myself that I can always be better & do more, but today, I am so proud of myself. I have been wanting to become a CRNA since I was 15, & here I am 15 years later. 

I am so grateful for my amazing husband who has selflessly carried me through this entire program, my amazing family on both sides, and truly for all of you guys. I know it probably seems like this went by fast to everyone watching this process online, but to me, it was a long couple of years. Your support through all the dm’s & comments have truly been inspiring, & I appreciate each and every one of you that have decided to follow my little journey through life. I love you all.

Next stop → graduation.
