Elise is no average girl. Brought to the children’s home at the age of five, she was a carer of two siblings through her nights on the streets, had always been a fighter and a leader, and is now a pattern for many at her home.
She also wants to be a doctor when she grows up and is already a highly skilled blood pressure taker.

Children, we cannot ever give them enough love..

I agree completely! 🙂 🙂
Doc, do you still practice medicine?
I do clinical medicine as a volunteer, but I’m more a public health physician now, so I do epidemiologic research. But patient care will always have a special place in my heart. 🙂
Beautiful smile 🙂
