IT IS SO POSSIBLE. Yes you can do anything in life. Mental strength is a rare quality but the best to have. Begin somewhere ; school is the only answer I know; my beginning. Feed your brain with knowledge it will feed you back for the rest of your life. The advice I give young people in Africa and New York City comes from my real life experience. I had no money to go to medical school. My mother was a domestic worker. I went door to door begging neighbors to help me get to medical school. I applied for loans." she wrote. "Mrs Ruth Khoza stole money from her husband Dr. T Khoza who is a general practitioner in South Africa Ulundi. They gave me $500 (R8 693) to register medical school. I never paid anything else because I did not have it. I was financially excluded. I would sneak in pass securities to attend lectures at UKZN Nelson Mandela School of Medicine. The rest is history." "Well done doctor, you are such an inspiration for us student. May God continue to use, and carry on spreading your message, our south African youth need to hear this."
