Dr. Reed's Graduation


I did it! I actually finished my work and graduated with my DNP (Doctorate in Nursing Practice) Degree!!

I flew from Ecuador to Cleveland, arriving on May 16th. I met Mike, Annie, Rachel, Ruth, and Sam at the Cleveland airport, and Alison and Ethan later at Kirtland. They had driven out from Long Island

I wasn't really sure it was happening. Yes, I had pulled another all nighter right before I left for Ecuador, and yes, they said everything was okay, but until I checked in and the card with my name on it was there, I wouldn't let myself be sure...

It was there!! I got to participate in graduation, and got my doctoral hood. I feel like the weight resting on my shoulders is considerably lighter

And, here is the college I attended and graduated from--the Frances Payne Polton School of Nursing at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio.
