fifty-nine; Javier, Steel Ten-Speed Commuter Bike


What does one do after spending seven years in medical school?
After your brother and parents have left you and moved thousands of miles away?
He decided on country whose language he only knows from medical books, where he has to start at ESL classes in community college?
Why?
This is where his family is, so this is where his future is.
He just got out of Friday night salsa class, says it’s a good way to meet people.
He assures me he’s not nervous about becoming a doctor here (medicine is bilingual), its talking to people that worries him.
