My experience at Sadler clinic made me realize that there are a lot of things that i took for granted- especially my family. I remember being very inspired by some of the patients that I met. Despite the fact that patients were sick and didn't know how long they have to live, many of them seemed extremely optimistic and had a very positive attitude towards life. The doctor shared with me that its not easy doing what he does because a lot of the time you have to detach yourself emotionally to be a good doctor. There were many incidents where a wife or husband found out that their significant other have cancer and begged the doctor to try to save their spouse. It's very heartbreaking to me and I realized that not everyone can do what Dr. Berilgen does and it made me really appreciate doctors like him. My volunteer experience at Sadler Clinic inspired me to want to be in a field where I can help others. Also, the experience taught me to really appreciate everything that I do have. A lot of the times we get so caught up in our day to day lives, we forget what living life is all about.
