There's this class assignment where I have to interview a nurse. I didn't know any other nurses and I couldn't go to the hospital and walk up to one because they kept saying their busy. So I came here for a last resort. Is any nurse willing to let me interview them for my assignment? It doesn't take long. I can interview by email, AIM, or myspace (if preferred). Just send me a private message on here or you can reply to this topic. Please, will someone let me interview them?

P.S. The assignment is due Wednesday, Oct. 10th.

I can also do this interview by PM.
