The First Woman Doctor
I have recently read the story “The First Women Doctor.” It is about Elizabeth Blackwell, the first female to earn a medical degree. It took her many years and determination, but finally all of her hard work paid off and she got that degree. I will try to explain to you what the story is about. The main character in this story is Elizabeth Blackwell. Her family played a great role in her life. She was born in Britain but moved to the United States, then back to Britain. She was twenty-eight when she became an official M.D. Elizabeth faced many troubles in her life, and she almost gave up. But her father taught her to be strong and that if she tried her best, she could receive everything in life that she wanted. The story starts off in Britain, where the Blackwell family lives. Mr. Blackwell owns a sugar factory, which is doing very well. The family is in the upper class of their town, but they are also one of the nicest. Back when Elizabeth was growing up, it was thought to be useless to educate a female, but Mr. Blackwell felt different. He had all of his seven children very well educated. So as you can see, Elizabeth grew up in a very healthy environment. Although her life seems perfect, disaster is just around the corn
