Andrew's Story
Life
Here's the short version: After high school, went into the Marine Corps and played drums in one of the field bands. Became an EMT in my spare time and found a career I really liked as a result. Got out of the service, went to nursing school, became an ER nurse and volunteered as a paramedic. Moved back to the Chicago area in late '80s, got married, got a stepdaughter as well. Moved back south a few years later.
Became a flight nurse on a helicopter in the mid-90's. Also around that time, adopted my stepdaughter and then got divorced the next year. Moved to upstate SC, became a Christian in June 1996. Remarried late 90's, went back to grad school to become an FNP. Had a beautiful little girl in ...Expand for more
2002. Went back in the service 2003--Navy Reserve, because Marines don't have their own doctors or nurses--they use the Navy's.
I now work as a Nurse Practitioner at an Urgent Care clinic and I'm still in the Navy Reserve, caring for Sailors and Marines. From Fall 2010-Summer 2011 I was deployed to Afghanistan, working as an ER NP at two Forward Surgical Hospitals. Met a lot of great people, saw some amazing things, and helped a bunch of good people survive and get home to their families.
Our daughter is all grown up now, in college to become a teacher. She's awesome and we are so proud of her! My oldest daughter married several years ago and so we have a granddaughter, with a grandson on the way!
