Preface

I have never imagined working in a  town hospital in the heart of Jackson, Wyoming.  I am a southerner, I have a southern accent, for I lived in North Carolina for most of my life.  I attended North Carolina State University, where I thought I met my soul mate, who turned out to be a real class loser, who now is a prison mate.  Needless to say, he was putting a weight on my shoulders; and I almost dropped out of medical school.  After going through a rough relationship that ended terrible, I realized that if I would stay in North Carolina to finish my Doctorate and graduate, I would probably never have graduated.  So I decided to transfer to University of Florida to finish up my degree and graduate.  I accomplished what I was out to get but, when I graduated I needed to quickly find a job and pay off my school loans.  I personally didn't want to stay in Florida, it was always so busy, traffic was tortuous.  I just wanted somewhere a little less fasted paced.  I wanted a way out, I wanted to start a new life, somewhere where there was no strings attached.
I knew a friend by the name Jasmine who worked in Jackson, Wyoming and absolutely loved her job.   She was a nurse on the medical floor at the hospital and she felt the hospital really cared about its professional employees, for the facility treated them outstandingly good.   I decided to put in an application for a job on the night shift in the emergency department.  When I got an interview, I was excited, phone interview went as expected, and recently I got the job.
I moved out to Wyoming within the next couple of weeks.  Bought a small three bedroom rustic cabin with a brownish gray rustic holey barn.  I think everyone in Wyoming had a barn, I guess it is a necessity of architecture. My property is on the outside of Jackson, in a small village called Hoback, on the outside of the Hoback Junction.  It is 5,879 feet above sea level.  I can see the Rocky mountains, Teton National Park and snake river from my property.  The sights from my window are spectacular and outstanding this time of the year.  The pines are covered in a white glistering snow.
I will start my new job as Natalie Copperhead, Emergency MD.  This is when my life completely took a 360 and changed forever..
