Becoming A Patient With Terminal Cancer

My interest in medicine first stemmed from my freshman Biology class and my Nutrition class. I was intrigued by our studies of cells, genetics, and disease. Both courses incited a sense of awe and curiosity within me. Dissecting a frog, was the stepping-stone for my interest in medicine. Seeing the frog's heart made me wonder how the human heart worked. My research into the human heart inspired me to learn more about the medical field. I sought out volunteer opportunities that would give me insight into a doctor’s typical day. During my volunteer experience, I learned that as a doctor you experience many obstacles, including patient compliance and insurance approval issues. In my journey to pursue medicine, I learned that becoming a doctor means more than helping people, it means being the team leader, being compassionate, and most importantly being committed to the patient’s well being.

Biology has always intrigued me; that is why I took advanced biology courses every year during high school. I chose cardiology in particular for medical school because cardiac diseases run in both sides of my family. I have seen my grandmothers get pushed into the emergency rooms and I thought they were not going

It all started in the 4th grade. That’s when I knew that being in the medical field is what I’ve always wanted to do. This day, my 4th grade teacher gave us an assignment while learning science. We were specifically learning about the heart and it’s 4 chambers. This subject, I remember, was so captivating and fascinating for me. I soaked in all the information I got from this class extremely easily. It was unlike any of the other classes that I have taken thus far. Math, literature and history were not subjects that I thought were very interesting for me but science was something that I especially excelled in. As the years went by I learned that I was especially had an interest in forensics. The ability to see the open body one-on-one in the fashion that forensics get to have contact with a body was more than interesting for me. So at the age of 12, I decided that forensics was what I was gonna put my mind to.

Throughout high school I contemplated becoming a doctor simply because the profession combined my love for helping people and the biological sciences. I entered my study of medicine at the University of Western Australia straight after high school in 2007 and completed the course to obtain ‘Doctor’ when I was 23 years old.

I have wanted to be a doctor for as long as I can remember. In like manner, I have always had a fascination with the human body. Yet, that fascination was driven even further when I bought my first medical textbooks and studied anatomy and physiology, and medical terminology. I studied those two books in-depth, learning latin root words and suffixes such as -ectomy, hyper-, -osis, epi-, and so forth. From these books, I was able to understand basic medical words, and understand some of the medical jargon that doctors spoke.

I have learned from my experience that there is no better place in this world other than this country to learn about new cases or to do a research project or to avail the best treatments to my patients.With the latest technologies and rare cases found here, I wish to pursue my career as an internist in the United States.I have many attributes to contribute to Internal Medicine.My family has taught me the values of hardwork,honesty,dedication and commitment to goals.I am a critical thinker and problem solver and I will deliver all these to my residency program.Each patient is a educator for me and this teaching attracts me to academics and I look forward to being part of an institution that provides a healthy learning environment based on open

The dedication of a ballerina, the compassion of a teacher, and the creativity of a scientist all make up my career of choice. I have always looked up to doctors. They heal those who are sick, identify and solve health problems, make discoveries and lead teams to provide patient care. I am fascinated by the way the human body works; what happens at the cellular level, how genes are expressed, and how medications work. Becoming a physician is my ambition. I am ready and excited for the journey leading to this amazing career.

​After graduating high school I was very unsure of what I wanted to teach and found myself really enjoying the health sciences. I changed my college major to nursing and then found a love for childbirth. I decided to move towards the path of medical school to be an OBGYN. As I began

The first spark of me wanting to be a doctor was when my dad bought a cheap stethoscope home for me to listen to hearts. Since then I have always been interested in biology. I would put that stethoscope on everything. My animals weren’t excluded from this, even the hamster. That one was a bit difficult. But when I aged my career interests jumped around for a little bit.

When I started my freshman year I considered becoming a pediatrician, which was just one of the many turns on the rollercoaster of figuring out my life. But that ride ended when I took anatomy and physiology my sophomore, it helped me to decide that my passion is to obtain my Doctorate of Physical Therapy; hopefully as a Jaguar.

REPORTER: The reporter/ friend (Franziska) called with concerns for the vicitm, James. James has Terminal Cancer and he’s being treated by Hospice.

The reporter said Donna is manipulative and unstable, and she may get “freak out” if someone comes out to the home. The reporter would like for someone to check on the vicitm

Since early childhood, I have been fascinated by the complexity of the human body. The curiosity for its functioning and potential dysfunction led me to medical school and allowed me to successfully complete my training at the University of Brescia In Italy; far away from my family, fending for myself, learning a different language, living in a different culture and studying without help.

Still, I stayed resolute in my decision to not become a doctor. Then, in twelfth grade, when I took Advanced Placement Biology, I couldn’t hide or shame my love for the subject any longer. Biology is all encompassing and fascinating because of

Right from the start of my internship, I have been curious about and drawn towards the field of internal medicine. I feel it is one of the most complete specialties. It starts with the patient’s complaint, continues to information gathering, diagnosing, and prescribing medicines until the illness is resolved. Even the
