    Dream ko rin sana ang maging community doctor, kaya lang hindi ako pwedeng tumigil sa pagwowork dahil kailangan kong buhayin ang sarili at magulang ko. Kahit may scholarship pang binibigay ang gobyerno, alam naman natin kulang iyon kung wala kang kahit anong suporta kahit kanino.

    Sana iyong mga nakapasa makatulong kayo sa mga malalayong lugar na mas kailangan ang serbisyo ninyo.

    Much the same as the discussion on fetus removal, when laws are authorized which appear to depreciate human life-is an out of line point of reference set up which could prompt a further downgrading? nembutal suicide
