I looked around the hospital, feeling fulfilled. I had spent many years building this hospital and with the help of my very supportive husband, and the "Save our Women and Children Foundation", I had finally achieved my lifelong dream.
This was the third hospital I had built over the years. For fifteen years I concentrated on improving my country and other select countries in Africa. By building more hospitals with modern facilities, I was able to reduce the rate of maternal and infant mortality very drastically. I also established various voluntary organizations that concentrated on various aspects of my country's problems. The "Save Our Environment" organization which aimed at providing a cleaner and healthier environment helped me to reduce malaria to the minimum. I had also spent many years providing free education and public health for the people of Nigeria. With the help of the Nigerian government, I was able to improve the medical system in Nigeria.
All the years I had toiled to achieve my dreams were behind me and my past seemed like a distant memory. However, my mind kept drifting to a particular place in my past...the University of Pennsylvania. "U-Penn" I thought to myself. Looking back now, I wonder where I'd have been right now without that wonderful school.
The University of Pennsylvania had shaped my dreams into reality. It made me realize that I had ample opportunities to make a difference in the lives of others. It empowered me not only to succeed with my personal and professional life but also to make a positive impact on my country and the world in general.
"Doctor", a nurse called as she gently tapped my hand, pulling me away from my thoughts. "A patient has just arrived with cardiopulmonary complications" she said. It was time to do what I loved the most; what U-Penn had thought me how to do best- save a person's life.
