Autumn raindrops were pattering against my bedroom window. I was playing chess with my younger sister. Stalemate, I said. As she contemplated her next move, I suddenly felt a dull, then a sharp pain in my stomach. Breathing was difficult. The next thing I knew, I was on the floor, my arms around my stomach.

Admissions Statement (250) Some careers are professions, others are callings. I am called to the career of social work because I believe it provides some of the best opportunities to help people who are in crises or transition and to provide that help in a constructive and relatively rapid manner.
