I did it when I was 12, read in the newspaper when i was still at boarding school in England that we could send a card to Santa! And that’s what I did! And guess what, I indeed got a reply from Greenland :)

when i was at high school i didn’t even think how it’d be like working in a hospital. like making decisions for your own patients, gosh i don’t know how i went through that fear at the beginning!! thankfully things now come more naturally… i hate those times when i carry a bleeper while you’re on night duty… i mean, how can you fall deep asleep as you always have to anticipate for any emergency? the responsibility is heavy, even when i’m back home from work i still think about my patients, their lab results.. and if you ask me, the biggest responsibility is with your family’s health, seriously!
there are so many bad moments, but i’d say there are loads of good moments that have pushed me to work harder and strive on! it makes you feel great when you’ve done something good to others, however small or insignificant it seems!
