I am a 40 year old married father of four from Western Massachusetts. I have been a registered nurse for 14 years and hope to increase my medical/nursing knowledge to be of assistance to my family, friends, and community if an emergency event occurs. I am new to prepping but feel I owe it to my family to keep them safe if the SHTF, so I am making a plan to initially prepare for a 3 day emergency (after I reach this goal, I will try for 1 week, a month and so on)
