Dream and suffering
- Since I was little I dreamed of becoming a doctor. It's seems really amazing to help people to regain their strength. I once heard someone said "If you save a life it's like you saved the whole world" And i really want to do that. I know that way is not always easy, there are a lot of diffrent obstacle in this way. But the thought of that someday all of us who are dreaming about becoming a doctor and help people will be succeeded really make me get my strength. Looking at a sad eye which become happy is something I want to see and thinking " It's amazing how I could help such pretty eyes" . My father suffered with cancer not too long ago, I was really hurting. I felt how is that strange feeling that somebody may be taken away from you. I always felt sorry for those who had cancer, but I never thought that someday one of my nearest member of my heart will get it. I'm writing this with tears in my eyes, to feel bad for someone about something is really different form the feeling you ge

Be a doctor to save life.
- It is my pleasure and heart desire to become a medical doctor. I grew up with the strong desire of becoming a docter. It was because of this reason that stired me into taking science as a course right from secondary school. I want to be in that profession to ease suffering from patients with various diseases and as well to save lifes. We only make plans, but God fulfills. It is my prayer that God will grant my desire and all those with that same desire in Jesus name.Amen. Shadrach Danladi.

Neurosurgeon
- I want to be a neurosurgeon because I believe that one day mental diseases will be cured through brain surgery. I went through two very real, life threatening mental diseases and I want to help others cure theirs.

My mom
- My mom has had stage four bent easy cancer for 7 years now. She is the only one to have lived this long. She is an outlier and still tries her hardest to live or her two children. I am 16. That means I have been living almost half if my life with a terminally ill parent. It doesn't help that my parents are divorced. And a bad divorce at that. I see my mom in pain, and crying, but sometimes I do see a smile of pure happiness out of her. I want to become a doctor to help as many people as I can. I don't want them to have to go through what my mom does. I experience the pain of being sick up close and personal. I meet amazing doctors when I'm with her. All of these doctors have prolonged her life so she can live with her two young children. As her oldest chd and only daughter I want my mom to live till old age. When I become a doctor, I want to help others to know that there is happy times and there is ALWAYS hope. Even in the worst situations. I just want to help others. As much as I can

To be successful
- I want to be a doctor because my goal in life is to be successful. A doctor gives you plenty of money to be successful and to support your family. Also, it gives you a honorable social status. Even though you have to go to plenty of school, being a doctor pays off in the end.

medecine is my ove since early childhood
- why do I want to be a doctor? who doesn't? when i was a kid i couldn't imagine that some people don't want to be doctors! it just didin't make anysense for me! i thought "who doesn't want to help people? to make them feel better? to kill their pain? and to gain their love?" but now after i grew up, i realized that depends on the person! i personally thought that i wanted to be a cardiac-surgeon because of all the books i've read! i mean we always read things like"I'm gonna love you as long as my heart keeps beating....." which means that our hearts control our lives: you're dead or alive because of your heart. but now i realized that's wrong it's our brain that does almost everything: it's the one that is actually responsible for our life! and that's why i am studying Neurosurgery! i love to be a neurosurgeon to save people's lives. i can't find any thing that is more noble than that!!

becoming a doctor....
- Right now,I'm a third year student at my medical school and,to be honest,I'm struggling.That is why I came upon this website.I really wanted to become a doctor when I was 15 because I wanted to make my parents proud and help people.And also because I thought I've got what it takes to be one,both intelligence and determination.But it's easier said than done to spend almost all your free time studying.Life is short and all that,you know?That's why I'm struggling.I'm lacking a bit or maybe a little more in sacrificing department and starting to forget why I chose this in the first place and doubt myself if I really want to do this.But after reading some of the stories here,I remember why I chose this.So I'm gonna keeping those in mind and try studying some more.

My Reason
- I want to become a surgeon because, even though I am 14, someday I will be responsible for saving somebody's life. At times I might fail and it would be extremely hard to deal with but helping people feel better and saving somebody's life is a dream of mine. To be that important and vital to a person's life and their family would be the best feeling in the world!

Doctor, Surgery and O.R.
- I want to be a doctor because I have a really hard desire and memory about it. When I was six my sister died -she was 12- in a car accident. Everything happened so fast that I couldn't understand what was happening. Finally, I realized that I was holding my sister's heart inside her. On that day, I decided to be a surgeon and I wanted to decrease the death toll. Now, I am in highschool. I hope one day I can be cardiologist. Also, I love helping people. I have CIP, I am working in a hospital.

Not a dream, a reality.
- When I think of myself as a doctor (cardio thoracic surgeon), it is not solely a dream. It is a very real reality in which I am giving people a reason to live. The long hours and frightening amount of schooling are no comparison for the reflected joy brought by one of my patients. Not to mention the undeniably handsome compensation that this career offers. Good luck my friends.

helping people
- I belive being a doctor is not all about the money it's about helping people with needs. If I get a chance to make my dream of being doctor come true I am going to help people with all my heart I am not going to charge people so much money because I that some are less fortunate and they don't have enough money.So instead of charging them so much money I am going to look back and say wow I have been sick so many times and some people have been there for me helping me with all their hearts so why don't I do the same.If anyone is sick out there I hope U GET WELL SOON!
