I am what is called an internist. I care for chronic problems in adult patients. Do you speak French and Spanish? I speak a little French and am trying to learn some Spanish. English is difficult, keep up your hard work

Hello Suzanne and hello Kelly. Thank you very much for all that you have done for me.

Yes, I like to play soccer. Suzanne, what kind of doctor are you? I am learning English but I am not fluent yet. Someone is helping me write me.

Kelly, thank you so much for helping me with the passport!

Thank you again, Piterly

    Emmaculate Mueni

    Kenya

    Emmaculate is the last born in a family of three; one sister and one brother. Her parents rely on subsistence farming for livelihood, which has been greatly affected by the changing climate. While in primary school, Emmaculate spent most of the time at home while the other students were at school. This was because of lack of finances to cater for some of the requirements at school. This did not stop her but instead propelled her towards achieving her dream of becoming a cardiologist in order to save lives. Her role model is Barack Obama and she likes his phrase of ‘Yes we can’. Moreover, she likes reading story books during her free time.
