I want to become a doctor in Africa and make my mom proud

Date Published: 11/26/2016

I am Micah and I want to become a doctor in Africa. I am 18 and a first year medical student at st Augustine international university in Kampala, east Africa. I am from west Africa and I am currently in Kampala to study.



 



I got inspired to study medicine and to become a positive person when I was 13 years and I started reading about Dr Benson Carson. In all of his books, I felt so much inspired by his story. I told my mom I want to become a doctor, I gave her my reasons and she said ok and she started saving up, so on the month before my 18th birthday I got the admission to study medicine in Kampala.



 



My mom took her savings and arranged my flight ticket. The week before leaving I went around and gave out some of my shoes, cloths and sweaters to the people in need.  My mom took me to the airport and gave me some advice, I was so happy because that was my first time on an airplane.



 



I started schooling, I got an apartment which I am not comfortable with but is that the one I can afford, and I started  to go to school. I couldn't go to all the classes cause my mom didn't save enough and I was denied access. I felt so bad but I kept believing in my dreams.



 



One day my mom called me and told me she have paid my fees for the semester. Oh my God, I was so very happy, I went and showed the school the payment details and I was finally  allowed full access to class and access to the library



 



MY WISH IS TO RAISE MONEY FOR MY MED SCHOOL, LIVE IN A BETTER APARTMENT

AND TO PICK UP MY PHONE AND TELL MY MOM THAT I HAVE RAISE MONEY FOR MY SCHOOL AND SHE COULD FOCUS ON MY OTHER SIBLINGS. I WANT TO FEEL THAT MOMENT WITH HER ON THE PHONE AND MAY BE DURING THE VACATION VISIT HOME

THANK YOU I KNOW YOU WILL HELP MAKE MY WISHES COME TRUE LOVE.

thank you
