medical check up and medical story

Passed the medical check up with flying colors......or almost flying colors. The specialist gave excellent reviews on the blood test.....cholesterol, sugar levels, what have nots. My internal organs such as the liver and kidneys are functioning as well as they are supposed to. Only the blood pressure was on the borderline..........well, then it was MY turn to explain to the medical experts that the procedures required, the agonising waiting to meet the doctors, etc MUST have also played a part in making any normal person's blood pressure level to at least rise a few reading levels......ah! well! I did not spend six years of my life in medical school but I did live with a sibling who did and who is now a medical specialist.
My sister knew that a very young age that she wanted to do medicine. Our grandfather was a medical doctor and he made a mark in medical history but he had died when mom was pregnant with sis. All of us somehow sensed that my sister would make it someday in the medical field. She was brilliant in school, she had 'expert' fingers, good at handicraft and always faced her challenges head on. She had a sense of helping to 'cure people'. I think that puts her in the special breed of people who are made to be doctors rather than trained to be one.
