Wendy's Story
May, 2009- How do you sum up 30 years after high school? I have been fortunate to have travelled to Japan, Hong Kong, Nepal, India, Germany and Madagascar.
After I graduated from college, I went into the Peace Corps in Nepal and it really was the "toughest job you'll ever love." Would do it again in a heartbeat! I returned home in 1987 and worked at the VA Hospital in Minneapolis; at our 10 year class reunion I decided I really did miss medicine and went back to school to get my LPN.
I have worked at MeritCare clinic in Bemidji since 1994, most of that time as a surgical assistant in Obstetrics and Gynecolog...Expand for more
