Entry to medical school in Laos is more difficult than in the developed countries so it's going to be tough. He would be a wonderful doctor, Vanh is bright, caring, sensitive, wise, perceptive and can talk to anyone. During his 2 weeks his interest was sparked in other healthcare professions which is great but his heart is in medicine, he'd love to be a doctor to help his family and community in Northern Laos. I have been trying to gentle add reality to his ideals so there has been some sadness in his eyes but he's bounced back with 'i know getting to medical school is almost impossible but i want to try and if you want something you have to go for it'.
I'm going to be doing lots of studying with him over the next year, we're going for it
