Jessie's Assessment

Nurses Training

Several kinds of cancer

How I started painting

Jessie's Assessment

Jessie is a 78-year-old retired nurse who was diagnosed with colon cancer 14 years ago. Twelve years later, the cancer returned and spread to many areas in her body, causing severe pain.

I'm Jessie Seaman. My age is seventy-eight. I was married for twenty years to a man who was in the airforce and then I went back into nursing for twenty years. How does that sound?
