This episode is a conversation with Susan Luz author of the Nightingale of Mosul. Susan has been a nurse since 1972. She wanted to serve in Vietnam, but instead joined the Peace Corps. Listen to her stories of serving in the Peace Corps and working in community health nursing which eventually led her to join the Army Nurse Corps at age 33.

Susan has recently received her retirement orders and looks back on wonderful career of service in the Peace Corp, Kuwait, and Iraq. During our conversation we discuss PTSD, prevention of combat stress, and taking care of treating the “expectants.”

Retirement will not slow Susan down. She is already volunteering with the VA as a mentor and has full-time job at a psychiatry facility. Contact Susan to schedule a reading or appearance by emailing: gljr56@yahoo.com
