The one where you try to become a doctor.

<p>You are six the day you decide you want to be a doctor. You decide after your mum is declared cancer free, after your mum starts working in a hospital as an HIV counselor, after you see just how little doctors there are who are women. You decide because you want to do hard things, because you&rsquo;ve always been and will always be a woman in a man&rsquo;s world. You decide because you want to be like that one doctor you met when you were two, the woman you believe held the power to heal your mother in her body and in her mind. You decide because you are smarter than everyone in your class, boy and girl, and you have heard only the smartest people get to go to medical school and become doctors. You decide because by all means, people must one day be able to call you doctor.</p> <p><a href="https://malomoomanyo.medium.com/you-are-two-when-you-first-see-a-woman-whos-a-doctor-537e42f76912"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
