    Well, since my childhood to this present time, I have met and admired countless people. However, sometime my experience was not up to the mark, but majority time I was over the moon. Today, I would like to talk about one of my close friend Ananya. She is a dedicated doctor in a reputed hospital. Ananya is my university friend. Our paths crosses at university days. She chose this career because of her desire to help others. She loves to read medical journals and classic literature because it helps her to stay updated and relaxed. Also, I will remember recently she made a remarkable decision on a remote area on a medical emergency for the volunteer which shows her selflessness and dedication towards his profession. Apart from this, Ananya also encouraged me to follow my dream to become a story writer. And thanks to her support, I got my first article published on renowned website. Sometimes I feel that knowing Ananya is a blessing for me because she always has a great idea. Especially about healthcare. If I get a chance to study healthcare with Ananya, I will never miss a boat because she is very knowledgeable and passionate. And having a friend like him in my life is a blessing. And I feel very fortunate that she is my friend and I always admire his company. And also she is very kind and humble and always keen to help others and me as well. So this is the time.

    The person that I have chosen to talk about who is currently pursuing a career in medical sciences has to be my friend Girish. I have known him from 8th standard, we were in the same class and he has been one of my best friends. His interest in medical sciences and the medical field started when we were in the 10th standard and we had to make a diagram of the heart. He found it interesting and the subject of biology just stuck to him. Eventually he did do his high school in biology and currently he has been finishing his MBBS. I think as far as I know from his...

    Answer

    It Ends With Us is a book I read recently. It's by the author Colleen Hoare. It's mainly a story about two teenagers, Atlas and Lily, and how they just handle their life going through high school, adolescence, and just domestic violence at home. Both of them come from very, very different families. However, they have one common determining factor between them, which is domestic violence. The abuse that they've seen their moms go through is just insane, and they connect through that on a different level. They're actually in the same high school, but they never speak to each other until Atlas actually crashes into an empty house next to Lily's villa. When Atlas is homeless and he doesn't have anywhere to go, he just comes and breaks into the house next to Lily's, and Lily helps him with all the daily necessities like clothes and food, medicines and stuff. Furthermore, their friendship blossoms into love, but it doesn't really fructify as Atlas has to leave. This book really gave me a lot of knowledge about domestic abuse and how to deal with it.

    My maternal uncle is a doctor at a huge company called Encompass Health. He is a physiotherapist who works in helping people recover their mobility or regain the mobility that they have lost due to any accidents or problems that they have had to face in their lives. My uncle is an inspiration for me as he has been very helpful in telling me how to help people who have lost their mobility. It is essential for him to help those people as usually when people's bodies don't function or move how they want it to move it can cause a lot of suffocation or restlessness or anger within them. So helping them regain this mobility would also improve their standard of living. He usually tends to older people or people who have lost their mobility due to conditions that they have faced in their lives or accidents. He has been an inspiration to me as I would also like helping people in these difficult times of their life to regain something that is most important to them. It would make me happy to know that they have regained their will to live or mobility due to something I helped them with which is why he is an inspiration for me. He believes in helping people to the point where he loves when his patients have a good standard of living again. He does not do this only for the money, he does it for the outcome where he has helped countless people gain the will to live again. That is what I love about him.

    My uncle is a doctor by profession. He is a consultant neurologist working at St. John's Hospital in Bangalore. The reason why he opted for this profession was that there were not many doctors present from our family or our neighborhood and compassion was in his nature since childhood. I have often heard about his inspirational story to pursue medicine from my mother. As someone in his family who have witnessed many of his achievements, I was inspired by him since my childhood. He was awarded the best outgoing student during his graduation. The news were all over the newspapers and televisions. It was a proud moment for all the family members and during our times of loss when someone in a family was in severe illness, it is to him we all go. It is his opinion whom we value. So there are many quirks in the medical profession these days. They won't give the correct diagnosis often because of business mindedness. So I think it's necessary that a doctor should be present in our family to give the accurate diagnosis.

    Okay, so one of my cousin, one of my cousin, she is actually pursuing her master's in MBBS. She's pursuing her MD in MBBS in abroad. So she, from childhood, I've seen her, her passion for medical field and her interest towards this particular area. So it's been a while since she has left the place and I've been missing her a lot of time. We used to, during childhood, we used to play together, we used to hang out and we chill. We studied in the same schools and yeah, we definitely studied in different universities. But yeah, I guess it was a dream to get into any medical colleges, medical field and it was really her passion. I've seen her struggle a lot of getting into this and I'm really proud of her. So it's been a while since she's gone to those universities and yes, I really do miss her. And the reason she chose this career was because her parents, that is my uncle and aunt, they were in the same field and she has seen them overall through her growing stage, doing the work and everything. So in that way, she took up this job and I mean, took up this as her career option. Yeah, it was while, I've seen her struggle too much for the same and yeah, that's it.

    The one person I know who has chosen a career in medical field is my cousin. Her name is Haifa and I honestly believe she is born for it because ever since we were kids she had this natural instinct of look after people. If someone fell over or wasn't feeling well she will be there pretending like a nurse with her toy stethoscope and bandage. She's always been one of those person who always go extra mild for others whether it for helping a stranger or or even her friend even her friends and right now she is in her final year of schooling between attending classes and preparing for preparing for preparing for exams. She barely has a moment to breathe but she loves it and I remember once she once once she told me that nothing sees happier than seeing someone who has smiling because of what you have done for it. I think that's what her keep going even though the going gets a tough. Nursing isn't just a job it's a calling it's tough both physical and emotional but she's handling like a charm and it's I'm really proud of her and it's really amazing to see see her achieving chasing her dream and sometimes her dedication determination to the to this field really inspired me also and yes
