MY DREAM: BECOMING A VETERINARIAN
Posted: January 9, 2014
One dream that I have had all my life is to become a veterinarian. I have a feeling that I would be one of the people in this world who loves their job, and would not mind doing extra work if one of the vets is sick and needs someone to come in for them.
There are a couple reasons why being a vet is something that I really want to do: my love for animals, my interest in medicine, and my love for helping a living being. Even if I can make only a small difference, that would still matter. For example, if my friend’s cat was lost, I would try to help her find it, and hopefully we would.
I believe that veterinarians help not only animals but also humans. They keep our pets healthy and safe for us and by vaccinate them against all kinds of diseases that we could catch.
I had a guinea pig that lived for eight years (a very, very long time for a guinea pig) before she died from tumors in her belly. She had been too old to have surgery, so we could not do anything to help her. When I am a vet, there still may not be a cure for those kinds of tumors, but I am sure that there will be a way for guinea pigs like mine to have a chance to live longer.
My dream is to become a veterinarian. I know that I will work hard to fulfill that dream, and hope that everybody who has a dream will work hard to fulfill it, too.
From Loretta:
This student has been with me for several years. She is one of the most caring and sensitive girls I have ever known. She is also determined and WILL become a vet one day.
Being a vet is a very rewarding career. Helping animals and their humans is an amazing thing. From pre purchase exams, dental cleanings, routine shots to lameness exams. It is all so very important, especially for out large equine friends.
One way my vet has made a huge difference for me has been her compassion and empathy. I will NEVER forget the painful moments when a beloved horse has to be laid to rest. When the vet has to deliver such dreadful news it is hard, for everyone. My vet would look at me with tears in her eyes, and I would just know. Somehow the pain was lessened just a bit knowing it was that hard for her too. Several of my students hope to be vets after college. I will do everything I can to help them obtain their goals.
