I do not feel entitled to anything and nobody actually owes me anything, so I don’t feel sad.I would always be grateful for everything I got and anything it brings to me in the nearest future. I appreciate my lecturers especially the paediatricians because without the knowledge they imparted in me, I wouldn’t have achieved this.I’m also grateful to UNIPORT for giving me the platform to achieve my dreams. The cash reward was inconsequential to me because following this award, I was already recognised at my induction ceremony and the smile on thefaces of my family members and friends madethe entire journey worthwhile.Joy received N250 for graduating top of her class in 2015The Chief Medical Director, University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital, Prof. Aaron Ojule, also offered myself and 24 of my colleagues immediate placement for internship.The Association of Resident Doctors gave us awarm reception upon our resumption of internship as well as gifts to celebrate our achievements.
