From Tent to Stars
My name is Conchita V. , I am a wife, a mother of 3, step mom to 2, and I am also a grandma!
I am an Oncology Certified Nurse and I was diagnosed with colon cancer on Feb. 23, 2022, after I had my first ever ROUTINE colonoscopy.
March 15, marks my first week post surgery - i had a colectomy,TAHBSO and appendectomy on March 8. I am hoping to share my experiences, both as a cancer patient and at the same time, share some of my knowledge, as an oncology nurse. My hope is that the content of this channel will encourage everyone to get screened for cancer, without delay.
God has made me for such a time as this.
Thank you Jesus for teaching me how to roar load, to step out of my tent (my comfort zone) and start counting the stars (to aim for the impossible).
Come join me in my exploits…. Adventure awaits😎😎😎
