This is for Barbpick that gave me the info about the oncology nursing. No I am not a nurse yet. I am starting nursing aide next week and I want to later become an ostomy nurse. So you do not have to be so rude about it. I was just wanting to know how long it took to become this so I could look at a time frame. I thought you would know. I hope you are not his rude with your patients. My daughter had cancer and I took care of her and this is what I decided I want to do. Help people like this.
