It was an unspeakable happiness when I heard I was accepted to medical school in May. I had UC throughout undergrad, and three complicated surgeries have left me with a temporary ileostomy. I sacrificed a lot of other aspects of my life. My personal determination helped me prevail. It's a personal triumph and I'd 'like to share it here. This forum was invaluable during my darkest times so needless to say I appreciate it.
I also emphasize this rave is intended with the utmost humility. My challenging issues may seem slight compared to the many afflictions of others caused by no fault of their own. I sincerely hope my post is merely good news from one your peers rather than a sign of arrogance.
