It's pretty funny what you
think of when you're out here.

I was remembering
a moment in my childhood.

I remember riding
in my mom's black Acura,

and she asked me, "What do you
want to do when you grow up?"

And I said, "I want to be
like Indiana Jones

or like a modern day pirate."

And I remember what she said.

"That's great, son.

"No matter what you choose,

"as long as
you're happy with it,

I'll be proud of you."

Just catch all the squirrel
in the area,

hopefully run into some grouse,

and we're golden.

My mom, she would fight
for me no matter what.

If something was wrong,

if something needed
to be done,

I could always count
on her being there,

and I remember her being such
a powerful, courageous woman.

Incredibly kind,
and she always puts people

in front of herself,
even strangers.

But over the years,
I've seen life beat her down.

Unhealthy relationships,
six figures of debt

for over 30 years,

an insurmountable amount of
responsibilities and pressure.

That's done.

And I've watched her health
go down the drain.

And she's one
of the main reasons

I wanted to be a doctor,

to figure out
how I could help her.

It takes an incredible
amount of strength

to do what she has done,

and I want to remind her
of that.

I'll sun that.

Because everything I do
out here, how hard I push,

that's just a fraction
of what she's taught me,

so it's time for me to stop
trying to be a good doctor...
