I'll be a photographer. I'm going to bring bits of Australia back home with me. I told myself this before, yet I feel so doubtful on this plane that's flying me thousands of miles away. I was so confident yesterday .But today I don't belong to this plane where men sit with briefcases reading newspapers. They're all adults.
I've never been out of the US. And now ,I'm traveling into Australia alone, a world I know nothing about. A part of me recognizes it as home.
I remember little about my mother, but I remember she had an Australian accent and golden hair. She wan fun and she would often take us to New Jersey beaches, where we would spend the whole day taking walks along the shore. My mom told me that in Australia, Christmas was always spent on the beach with friends and family, and everyone wore Santa hat with their bathing suits. It never got cold and bitter there. My mom was different and I was proud of her.
I don't know how she met my father. but after they met several years, they got married and moved into an apartment in New Jersey. Then I was born and we were a perfect family of three who went out to dinner and watched movies in the dark and loved each other.
I know things have been hard on my father since my Mom died years ago. It's hard for me, too, and I have to experience the wonderful place my mom grew up in and loved. My mom talked about Australia so much and now I have to see this place.
This is an adventure.

I had been to several doctors as a child,but I have a special place in my heart for Dr.Vincent.He was a Pediatric Cardiologist at UCLA back in 1971 who saved my life.I was eight years old at the time with a severe heart problem and I needed heart surgery.My Morn did not have the money,and without the surgery there was a real good chance I would not live to be thirteen years old.After contacting several organizations Dr.Vincent was able to get financial help for me through United Way,a Crippled Children’s Organization.
Dr.Vincent was a handsome man;he was also very gentle and caring.I remember being in the hospital for an Angiogram test,and during the procedure I was crying hysterically,so the medical staff called in Dr.Vincent to calm me down,and he was able to comfort me when no one else could.Then the time came for me to have heart surgery;there was a fifty—percent chance that I would not make it through the surgery because it was experimental.At the time I was only the second or third person to have this procedure done,they reconstructed the main artery by using an artery from my leg.I was absolutely terrified,and again Dr.Vincent reassured me he would see to it that everything would be all right.I had a lot of confidence and trust in Dr.Vincent.He came to see me after the surgery,which was extremely painful but very successful,and brought me a stuffed animal.I was so surprised to get this gift from Dr.Vincent;I gave him a hug.I guess Dr.Vincent must have known I was feeling very lonely and scared.You see,I had no family or friends visit me while I was in the hospital except for my Mom,and I am not sure why.I do know one thing:I had a wonderful doctor who took the time to help a scared little girl who felt all alone.
