Peggy's Story
My husband and I spent the first 20 years of our married life in the Air Force. He had a PhD in Physics and taught at the Air Force Academy and later worked for Lockheed Martin in their space program. I finished my schooling while we were traveling the states in the military (34 moves). I worked for many years as a Nurse (mainly in ICU) then went back to school to become a adult and geriatric nurse practitioner. I also taught school in several of the nursing programs in Denver, Colorado.
Presently, I have 1 dog, a brown standard poodle service dog (for hard of hearing). and I have a cat named Abby. I have 5 children. Michael James who is an Emergency Room Physician in Florida. Mitchell Jay who is a Surgeon in Nebraska. Mark Jeffrey retired from the Navy and is now running a cyclotron (at a Jacksonville,Florida hospital) for Proton therapy for cancer treatments. Maria Margaret who now lives in Phoenix, Arizona and Michelle Marie who is a Registered Nurse in Denver. Charryn Be...Expand for more
th is the granddaughter that I raised and she lives in Colorado Springs, CO. I have 9 grandchildren at the moment and several great grandchildren.
I'm a retired RN and Adult/Geratric NP. I now live in Seal Beach, CA (Orange County - South of Los Angeles). You can look up the place I live by checking Leisure World Seal Beach, CA. It is a retirement community of about 9,000 seniors (55 and up) and has so many activities, that there is no way you can do them all in a month. I belong to the nurse's group here. I also do my art activities and read many books. I also love to go to the beach and walk out on the pier.
My husband Mike died December 2007 and I moved to California to be near my sister Sarah.
If I had a do-over I would have become a Vet and a professional ballroom dancer. But all in all I've had a wonderful life and have been very blessed. -- -- If you get out this way please contact me as perhaps we could have lunch together. My phone number is: 562-296-8361.
