PADUCAH, KY - School nurses in western Kentucky are having to deal with more than seasonal sicknesses these days. On a recent morning, McCracken County school nurse Kay Story checked on strange rashes, took temperatures, examined for head lice, counted carbohydrates for a diabetic student and helped a student who suffered a seizure. And that was before noon. Story, who worked at a hospital before becoming a school nurse 14 years ago, said she and two other nurses stay busy tending to students all year long. Nurses still deal with maladies such as sinus problems and allergies, but there's been an increase in students being treated for diseases such as diabetes.
