My Family's Medical Issues and My Desire to be a Pharmacist

My grades' experience inevitably gets worse. My mother was in critical condition when she was diagnosed with jaundice. Her liver expanded to 18 cm when her body refused to use sulfur medicine to treat her fungal infection. My father went in and out of the hospital due to the side effects of the medicine. He suffered both emotionally and physically for about three months until he found the most compatible medicine to treat his illness. Because both incidents occurred during my summer vacation, my family left me to continue my older year as I was in a bad mood.

I grew up in a family of scientists - both my mother and my father are pharmacists and my father is also a clinical biologist. It was not my dream to become a pharmacist since I was a child, but when I decided to study at college, I looked at chemistry, biochemistry, and physics are good at it. And I do not tell a lie - my parents are very happy that I decided to study a pharmacy. Yes, that began to change lifestyle. Since I am from Berlin, I am sending a very calm, classical and traditional life coming from Belgium. I came here and met someone who is doing something different. They are in a hurry, do what they like, explore their talent, and do a million things at the same time. This is really attractive to me, I had been dreaming since I was young, but I never thought that was a possibility. Then I moved here and met all these people, "Oh, this is possible, I can only choose it."

To be honest, I really want to be a Philippine pharmacist. I am dreaming of being together with my colleagues and advocating better pharmacy work in the country. But I'm tired of seeing my family struggling every day. It is not enough to feed me, my family, and my future family someday, due to Philippine pharmacist's salary. So, after working as a pharmacist trainer at the Genereika drug store in Philippines (Philippine community / hospital pharmacy franchise), I began looking for work abroad. My first choice is only a few hours away from Manila so it is Singapore I have an aunt and a friend living there The pharmacy technician pays at least five times the salary of a pharmacist in Manila. Even if the cost of living is high, you can save money enough for sending money to your family regularly, sending brothers and sisters to school, dreaming of going to Canada someday.
