Jill Dockery

I was born in Hammond, Indiana August 15, 1972. My parents are Jack Waugaman Sr. a roofer and mechanic and Pamela Waugaman (nee Musolf) a nurses aide. I graduated from Donald E Gavit in June 1990 with honors. Attended Purdue University Calumet and graduated with major in nursing with a minor in science in 1993. Married Craig Dockery Sr. on January 6, 1994 (Plumber at Feikema Plumbing in Munster, IN and studying Electrical Engineering at Purdue). Had our first daughter early on January 9, 1994 in Munster IN, but Brittany Nicole Dockery was fine. She went home before I was discharged from the hospital. She is graduationg high school this year and will be attending Purdue in Fall 2012 for nursing (just like me). She currently works at Bright Spot in Hobart, IN as a buser.

We decided to move to Murray, KY. My husband finely felt that he bonded with his mother. We had our second daughter Katie Mae Dockery on April 5, 1995 in Murray, KY. We moved back to Indiana. Our third and fourth children are boys, I mention them together because they seem like twins. Craig Joseph Dockery Jr. was born on May 21, 1997 and Jacob Kenneth Dockery was born on June 25. 1998 in Hammond, IN.

Bought a house in April 2003 in Hobart, IN. We still live there. We have 2 dogs and 1 cat. Sable is our oldest dog she is 8 yrs old and she is a terrrier mixed breed. Smokey is 7 yrs old and she is a Russian Blue Cat. Daisy is 6 years old and she is an AKC registered Beagle.

Worked as a registered nurse at Methodist Hospital in Gary, IN for 2 years (Graduate Nurse, Staff Nurse, IV team), Regency Place Nursing Home in Dyer, IN for 4 years (charge nurse and wound team leader), St. Margaret Mercy Healthcare in Hammond, IN for 8 years (charge nurse and preceptor for new nurses), and Fresenius Medical Care in Crown Point and Portage, IN (acute and chronic) (charge nurse and coordinator for Chicago district) for 5 years.

I became disabled on Februaury 14, 2009. I attended Westwood College for a year and made the Dean's and President's list. I was going for a degree in management because with the loss of vision and feeling in my hands I was not able to do nursing anymore. I wanted to become a Director of Nursing.

Now I'm trying to be a writer of novels and childrens books. I am new at blogging but it is interesting.
