A
My wife passed away a few years ago，and I went through the worst time in my life.I even wanted to kill myself.Just for my kids，I had to continue to live and work as a small­town doctor at my medical clinic in Hawaii.My kids had gone to live on the mainland，and I was alone.Then they asked me to have a family trip.
On our trip, we turned on the TV at the motel and saw the second plane crash into the World Trade Center. Seeing it falling down，I said to my kids：“I'm going to Afghanistan.”And a few weeks later，International Medical Corps sent me to set up 20 clinics in provinces where people had no health care.In these field clinics surrounded by frightening shoots or deadly bombs，we were eventually serving 27，000 patients a month in a very busy schedule.Tired and nervous，I gradually had a sense of achievement, a sense of purpose，and my depression went away.
