I have always looked up to him. My grandfather was a surgeon too, so you can say that it runs in the family. I know that it’s a very difficult and responsible job and I’m going to study really hard to become a good surgeon. I hope that after I graduate I will be able to work at a good hospital or clinic and get a good salary. I am going to apply for a postgraduate course and do research in the field of cardiosurgery.
