How to add text to a formula for an existing column

Hi, I am trying to add text to the following formula, but I am getting an error because I can't add "+" to text.  

 

if [Status] = "spend confirmed" then [Status]
else if DateTime.From([End Date]) <= Date.AddDays(DateTime.LocalNow(), -60) and not Text.Contains([Status], "confirmed") then [Status] + "should be spend confirmed" 

else [Status]

 

Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you!
