Best Sister Ever!

The 27th of last month was one of the worst days I had in a long time. I took my boards for the 2nd time. I again had all 265 questions, which is the max you can get. When it came down to the last 15 questions, I only had 7 min. remaining on the clock. The last 10 questions were literally randomly made answers. When I got up from that test, which was 6 hours later, I had tears streaming down my cheeks. I cried the whole way home, and when I got home I just collapsed in my husbands arms. I hadn't cried that hard in a long time, and to top it off I had to go to work.
Yesterday I got on the Internet to check if by miracle I had passed. When I logged on the department of health website with my info it read Michelle R Pettett Active RN. I was in such disbelief that I had to call Rosanna to confirm that active actually meant I passed. I again cried so hard, but tears of joy. I could not have passed with out the Grace of God. I took two 10min breaks during that test in which I just prayed that God wouldn't leave me. I felt like He wasn't there during that test, but the score shows that He was there the whole time.
My wonderful sister sent me these beautiful flowers that just goes to show how truly blessed I am from those who love me.
