Thomas Sanders

## Backstory

Thomas Sanders comes from a small family from Belfast, Northern Ireland. He grew up in a nice little townhouse with 2 younger siblings. His father was a FireFighter and his mother was a Nurse.

Thomas wasn’t a loner in school but he also wasn’t the most popular out of the bunch. He had a nice group of friends and excelled in every subject he took. As a young boy, Thomas watched his Mother and Father, every day, going out and saving lives and helping people in need. He thought this was so selfless and heartwarming to see them risk their lives and time into helping others feel safe, with this he grew up to be such a compassionate loving person.

Being the eldest child, Thomas always wanted to set an example for his younger siblings. He was very close to both his parents, but more so his mother. He saw her at her best and at her worst. He watched her come home some days rife with happiness after she had helped save people’s lives, and also some days when she was completely defeated after a terrible day at the hospital with multiple casualties. For most people seeing these ups and downs, his mother went through in a very unpredictable pattern may put some people off the career path she chose, but not Thomas, he was intrigued by the day-to-day work his mother was doing. He enjoyed seeing her in her element at the hospital and not just saving people’s lives with her medical expertise, but also bringing them a bit of joy with her outgoing chirpy attitude. She always put others' feelings before herself if she knew it would make them get through their hard times.

After graduating from school, Thomas decided to commit to following in his mother’s footsteps. He had watched his mother for so long doing her job and as fantastic as his father was at being a firefighter he much more enjoyed the day-to-day social interaction that came with his mother’s job and bringing smiles to people’s faces every second of the day. He longed for the more hands-on, on-the-go aspects of working in a hospital. Thomas wanted to bring this happiness to others and also to excel in his medical expertise as he did with his school work.

Thomas decided to apply to work in his mother’s hospital, however they had a full list of trainees and were currently not accepting any more. He decided he still wanted to move on with his medical career and applied to be a field medic within the army after completing his medical training at University. He was accepted into the medical field within the army and served his first tour which lasted only a short few months. After arriving back home his mother informed him with the fantastic news that there were now openings for interns at her hospital; he was accepted straight away with his fantastic resume and expertise.

Thomas took a job as an intern at Belfast City Hospital along with studying for all his medical classes. He worked himself to the bone to climb as high as he could up the ladders and to impress his superiors for a hopeful chance to one day make a fantastic life for himself and to dedicate the rest of his working life to helping the people of his hometown.

Thomas started out from the bottom of the food chain and worked his way up to running the hospital departments. His skills varied from General Surgery, Therapy, and helping with the search and rescue department, he eventually worked his way up and was offered the job of Director.

Thomas started to feel as though he was stuck in a rut, he felt he was no longer advancing any higher, and with his hungry appetite for more, one day at home he decided to search the internet for other opportunities which would give him the chance to show his fantastic skills.

Thomas decided he wanted to move away from his hometown and start somewhere fresh with new opportunities awaiting him and a way to meet some new people and hopefully advance further into his medical career. One night he received an email back from a hospital he had applied to, they seemed very eager for him to come work with them due to his experience. The only problem was, it was in Los Santos which seemed a million miles away from home.
