Dawn Alicia Adams: MD Degree at About 56 Years


She never gave up on her dreams of becoming a medical doctor even as the clock was ticking. 

In her own words:

50 years after playing with my first stethoscope kit, 38 years after graduating from high school, 36 years after enlisting in the Air Force, 20 years after graduating from Physician assistant school, 16 years after retiring from the Air Force, 2 grown successful kids and one grandbaby later....I am finally virtually walking across the stage today as Dr Dawn Alicia Adams. I have had a full and blessed life but I am truly thankful for completing med school and becoming a physician. For those of you over 50 that think it’s too late to chase dreams, I am living proof that dreams can become reality no matter your age and circumstances. Thanks to God, family and friends and everyone that inspired me along the way. I only hope that I can be inspiration to others and I only hope that I can make a difference in the lives whose paths I cross for the rest of the days I walk this earth.

Impossible is nothing. Congrats Dr. Dawn Alicia Adams.

What is the value of philosophy? Here is my attempt at addressing this apparently philosophical question many critics of philosophy ask often

What Use is Philosophy? If you are like most of us, you may have asked, at least, once; What’s the value of philosophy?  And you may have wondered about questions like; Why is there something rather than nothing?  Does God exist?  When did time begin?  From where did evil come? What is evil?  If God is good, why is there so much evil in the world? What justifies human treatment of animals? Is it moral to steal medicines to save a life?  Is it possible to live a normal life and not ever tell a lie? Is it easier to love or to be loved? Do acts of kindness have a motive? Why do we strive for perfection if it is not attainable?  If what would make you happy makes another person unhappy, who ought to be happy?  What is happiness? Are religion and science compatible? What is the soul? Does it exist before life and continue after? And so on! You may have also wondered about that famous philosophical thought experiment that raises questions regarding observation and perception generally attrib

Attachment and parent-adolescent discrepancies in reports of family functioning among suicidal adolescents: My review of the article by Chang et al. (2020).

Introduction: For most families, parents-children relationships are not consistent all the time. When children are relatively young (pre-teen), they usually have strong relationships with their parents, always in productive communication. However, as they transition to the adolescent developmental stage, this previously seamless and productive relationship with the parents changes significantly. Usually, parents get into constant conflicts with their teenage children at this time, ultimately impacting overall family functioning.  This apparent disruption in the previously robust family relationship is not necessarily a cause for alarm as it is, in most cases, a manifestation of the adolescents becoming less dependent on the parents as their primary support system. At other times though, it is a cause for alarm as it may indicate serious problems within the family. This way, it is essential to understand the various underpinnings to determine when specialist attention is needed. That sa
