Our oldest son,Trevor, works for the nursing program at Tacoma Community College. They have a brand new program that he has helped implement- they use robotic mannequins for the students to practice on. They are eerily lifelike with pulses and blinking etc..they even have a female one that gives birth!the newborn baby can even have blue lips from lack of oxygen...Trevor has researched and purchased all the equipment as well as sets up the senarios via computer for the students to "diagnose"...he has had to learn medical terminology as well as computer skills etc..He has come a long way- at 22 he is enrolled in college and headed in a great direction!!

Very cool. You have every right to play the proud mama and brag!
That is so awesome! If I had to do all over again, I would get a degree in nursing. :)
