Tonga BYU Nursing Trip

I went to Tonga with the BYU nursing program this summer. Many will ask, what does it have to do with Utah Support Groups? Well, the Tongans know what support means. Tongans taught me how to love. Tonga was a turning point for me, it furthered my zeal to help others heal, and in turn I myself was healed. Here is a video documentary my dear friend, Laurie made! It is in three parts. Part 1, Part 2, Part 3. Enjoy! I pray as many nursing students as possible can someday have a study abroad experience!

My Dream

We need a database for support groups! I am a senior nursing student at BYU, Director of the National Student Nurse's Association and currently have clinical rotations at the University of Utah ER. As I go into my patients rooms, I yearn to have a toolbox of support groups and community resources. If you have or know of a support group or resource in Utah,  please send me an email, socialmednetworking@gmail.com so I can highlight it. I will be working day and night so this blog can grow to be a treasured resource for practitioners, patients, families and friends alike. Eventually, I would love to make this into an interactive website. I am currently collecting donations and sponsorships to fund the website.  Please always remember, “There is power in realizing you are not alone!”
