Student Roll: David Ogden, James O'Donoghue & Debra Norton

Debra Robertson's story (from FB Apr '21): 
It really doesn’t seem that long ago when we were all undergraduates. I did my pre-reg at GRI with Janice, Christine and Derna before heading back to Strathclyde where I was in the same research group as Jim. Unlike him, this wasn’t a positive experience for me so I resigned in the second year of my PhD, relocated to Wiltshire where Scott had already settled and started again at Bath uni where I was much happier. Michael Tobin from the year above us joined the same group as me at Bath- saw him last about three years ago. Whilst still writing up I went back into hospital pharmacy at a district general in Salisbury and haven’t left since. I have continued to study, chalking up a total of 16+ years at three universities but have probably stopped now. I dabble in a few different aspects of hospital pharmacy but cancer care is my main area.
Scott and I have now been married for 27 years and have two daughters 17 and 21. Rebecca has one more year at uni in Canterbury studying primary education and Rachel is sitting her A levels so not sure yet where she will be in a few months. We also have the pleasure of being can openers to Florence, the very particular Maine Coon who seems to spend 20 hours a day asleep and chattering or complaining about the level of service the remaining 4 hours.
