If I could have any career it would be a career in the medical field. An occupation in rheumatology is what I believe will best suit me. My mom has inspired me to become intrigued in rheumatology. Back when I was in elementary school, my mother was diagnosed with lupus. Before it developed fully, she became weaker. It became harder for her to do everyday tasks like walking. Seeing her get frustrated and breakdown was very hard to see. It came to a point where she had to leave the house and go to the hospital. It took time for her to be diagnosed and it was very stressful for her. Once they finally were able to diagnose her, it was time for her to start recovering. A year passed without seeing her. Once she came back she told me about her recovery.
