Wan’s Medical Journey…

A few months after that very day, I stood helplessly next to my grandfather’s body, watching my family grieve the loss of our beloved “Aboh”.
I did not quite understand it then, but I soon learned that his death was caused by a lack of compassion and urgency from the healthcare provider because we were hill tribe people. This prejudice act became more and more apparent to me the older I became, having to later experience it myself as a patient in a hospital.

From this point, every visit from the Medical Mission Team became personal to me because I stood there and watched them treat the hill tribe people with respect and compassion at the cost of nothing. This humble act made me realize that pursuing medicine is God’s purpose for me.
Today, I am halfway through my pre-med degree with only two more years left before I begin my journey into medical school.

My goal is to become a servant of the Lord and do exactly what the Medical Team has repeatedly shown me. The team’s impact on me is immense. I cannot express enough gratitude towards FCBC and every volunteer in the team because you have inspired me and given hope of equal and compassionate care to all, regardless of their background, to the entire nation.
Your support and prayers are essential to earning my degree and continuing my journey into medical school. There are a few ways to help, the first and most crucial being my tuition and expenses at Cornerstone University; currently, my annual tuition is $37,400, which includes an $18,700 tuition per semester disregarding the expenses for dormitory stays during winter and summer breaks. The second way is through your prayers, which is just as impactful and appreciated.
