You could say I was a bit late on my decision to enter the medical field. Most doctors either have parents who are doctors or aspire to become physicians from a young age. I however didn't decide to pursue medicine until the summer between my sophomore and junior year of college. Now, almost a year and a half later I am more excited about my future than ever. I will be graduating from college with a bachelor's degree in public relations including minors in biology and chemistry. I will walk across the stage in just a few short months on May 13 which is Mother's Day. Since I am not the traditional med-school applicant, meaning a biology or chemistry major, I felt the need to beef up my résumé to ensure my credibility as a potential student. This idea grew into what are now plans to visit Africa this summer through the LifeNets organization (www.LifeNets.org). It was only a few weeks ago that I decided I wanted to participate in a medical missions program. This will further enhance my medical knowledge as well as my world perspective. As we speak, the wheels are in motion and it looks like it's going to happen. This journey is still unfolding. More to come.

Hi Plip, Love the updates. We're making a book of your Notes. It must have given you some stress over not accepting you ticket. We went Uncle Steve's for pentecost. John and the twins went along. The twins had a great time riding the horses and seeing the new fole. When I tell your joke to John I'll have to change it to Pepsi. He doesn't like Coke. Love Ya, Papa & Nanny
