Re: Scared out of my mind

Grayson,
Hello, my name is Mitch! I was reading all 4 pages of your story and I was reliving my own story in some instances. You will still have a nursing career! I too took great pride when I graduated nursing school. I was the first person to graduate high school let alone college in 3 generations! And the day I was caught diverting Vicodin from my hospital I thought I would never work again. It was the worst day of my life. That was 8 months ago. I too am involved with HPRP. What state are you in, did you mention that at all? I am in MI. As someone pointed out diverting for yourself and diverting for distribution are two VERY different things. 99% of the time if you divert for yourself no charges are even pressed and police are not involved in any way. This being your first offense and so many things going wrong with the officer that first questioned you, I hope that you find yourself a lucky girl and end up with a dismissed case. As far as the BON or the state investigator, if you are involved with HPRP, they will usually turn your case over to them to handle and monitor and as long as you comply with your monitoring agreement for the duration your licence will not be messed with. However if you get in trouble for distributing I am not sure how that will work out, but I do know that whatever happens, you will most likely not lose your licence. I have people in my HPRP group that are doing their 3rd stint in HPRP! Good for you for recognizing your issue with your pain medication. I was thinking as I was reading your posts that you had to be taking something. I just had a feeling and then a couple of posts later, you came out with that. I am new on here, but if you have any questions I will be happy to answer them. I have 8 months of HPRP and NA and recovery under my belt. It's not much but I can be of some help I am sure! Good luck to you and I hope to get an update from you soon!
