Are you a Nurse?

My grandmother had surgery on Friday and will be hospitalized for 7-10 days. I spend most of my days at the hospital with her. My 6 y/o nephew, who was diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension and ASD is scheduled for a cardiac cath on Friday and will be hospitalized for 3-4 days. I will spend this entire week and two or three days of the following week at Cincinnati Children's Hospital and University Hospital.

When a family member is hospitalized, how do you respond when you are asked, are you a nurse? Maybe I should using legal terms like negligence, licensure defense, liability, and assumption of the risk; do you think someone will ask, are you an attorney?
