Finally, another one checked off my bucket list! Passed my thesis defense and am set to graduate as a cum laude this Friday! It’s been a crazy 2 years of balancing everything, and now I am almost at the finish line. This one’s for you mom and dad! It’s a different sense of fulfillment when it comes to pursuing education. And now I can finally breathe a huuuugge sigh of relief! Thank you to my panel of doctors who pushed me to my limits today, at the end of the day, these people push you because they only want what’s best for you. Thank you also St. Bernadette of Lourdes college and its staff for being patient with my schedules. I did it! I am now Enrico Raphael Quiogue Nacino, R.N, M.A.N.(Registered Nurse, Master of Arts in Nursing). To God be the Glory! 🙏🏼
