since I was a child I knew I wanted to be a nurse. I liked helping others, I always played with a doll, cicciobello bua. The doll was sick and I had to take care of it.
I decided I wanted to be a nurse when I was ten. I was watching a TV series "a doctor in the family" and from that moment I knew that was what I wanted to do too. my decision was also influenced by my mother who has always been passionate about medicine and this passion has also passed on to me. undoubtedly my family has also influenced me a lot because many of my relatives work in the health sector.

We are at the hospital in Rome where Mrs. Jane Grays and her husband Max Sloan accompanied their daughter Eveline Sloan to find out what she had. Eveline will talk to Dr. Alex Mcallen, who after a careful conversation with the girl and after having examined her will talk to the patient and her parents about the diagnosis and therapy to be done.

Dr. Mcallen: Good morning Miss Sloan.
Eveline: good morning doctor.
Dr. Mcallen: What brings her here, Miss Sloan?
Eveline: I haven't felt well for a few days.
Dr. Mcallen: Can you describe the symptoms?
Eveline: mhh, headache, nausea, cough, fever, bone pain and cold.
Dr. Mcallen: Have you been cold these days?
Eveline: no, I didn't catch cold
Dr. Mcallen: The analyzes show nothing. Now let's pay a visit. Take off your shirt so I can listen to you with the stethoscope. Take some deep breaths.
Eveline: (she inhales and exhales deeply).

2020 was not a very happy year. We have seen reality suddenly change, life interrupted by a virus they call covid 19. This virus that suddenly and quickly brought us to a global pandemic also brought us so much pain. we have all seen bad times, loved ones who have lost their jobs, people who did not know how to carry on the family. We have seen relatives, friends and acquaintances die. This virus not only took away our freedom because of the locdowns, but also so many people who didn't deserve to die. Today, 2021, we all hope to defeat this monster, we rely on science, we rely on the vaccine, hoping to be able to return to our normal life soon. We've seen "everything will be okay" posters, we've seen people singing on balconies, we've seen people helping each other. To date I tell you that we will return to normal, together, in compliance with the rules in order to safeguard ourselves and others. We will definitely come back into our life as always.

My favorite TV series is Gray's Anatomy. This series consists of 17 seasons and each season has between 9 and 27 episodes. The main protagonist of this series is Meredith Gray, a young medical graduate who joins the group of surgical apprentices at Seattle Grace Hospital. Meredith moves to Seattle and starts her new life in a new city with her new job. Meredith is the daughter of Ellis Gray, a world-renowned surgeon specializing in general surgery, who gives her surname an important weight. During her time as a specialist Meredith will find herself crossing friendships, love affairs and working relationships. Meredith, in fact, will then make friends with Cristista yang, initially her enemy. Meredith will also find herself in a love affair with Derek Shepherd, a Seattle Grace neurosurgeon and his internship supervisor. Subsequently, relationships of friendship and love will arise between the remaining members of the staff, this will lead them to be all more united until after specialization each one will not take their own path.
