Dear whiterabbit: I am sorry to read about your ordeal, how tough it was and how, at this point in your life, you can't see any good on it, only the abuse, the money wasted, the unfulfilled dreams. I hope things will get into another perspective as time passes by... But with the rule "don't apply unless" you are in such and such conditions... I could not agree at all. Each person knows his reasons for trying. A dream is a dream and sometimes giving up before trying everything one could would kill him inside, more than wasting money, more than wasting time, more than being abused. It's very personal. I hope you'll be able to compensate your parents for enduring it all with you. Even though they suffered, I am sure they felt good for being able to help you. That's how parents are. I don't think your mom cried for the money. She cried for your situation.Talk to her about it. Say "I'm sorry" if you need to. One day they will need you, too, money involved or not, and you'll be there for them, I'm sure. One day you'll be as dedicated to your sons/daughters as they were to you, they taught you how to love and dedicate. Just summarizing: nothing is in vain. Even the lost battles are worth ones. Eventually that will sink in. What we want sometimes is not what is best for us, but God knows when, where and why. Sometimes we have the answers down the road, sometimes, we don't... We just need to believe. Maybe it was not for you. But you wouldn't have known without trying. I am praying for you, time heals and matures (I am not calling you immature, don't get me wrong) and our tendency is to get better and better through the years. A huge hug, God bless you. Arlete.

CocaCola: I bet you have a lot of that in you, too! It will eventually come out, when the opportunity to use it present itself (and it will, you're a physician!). Dear rabbit: I won't go "commercial ", I hope I'll go "medical institution"... Did that make any sense in English? Take care!

WR I hope things get better for you and that you would try to match or find out of cycle positions. Don't give up! I am going to use the same advice I gave you for myself....I tried for scramble (didnt try for Regular cycle match)...but I got no positions. My problem is attempts....its only human nature to feel down, so I will allocate some time for that But I truly believe everything happens for a reason...some we can't explain good or bad....only thing we can do is have hope and try With time hope will come back.........and things will get better (And no this is not an Obama speech ) I wish you good luck in your future endeavors!! :nod Arlette you are very articulate in expressing your thoughts, great advice

Please forgive me. .....and.Please don't set your dogs on me. Secondly to new applicants..............Guys things are getting tough here...Unless your credentials are exceptional please don't apply. Don't waste your Dads money and see his tears when you don't match.........I had to watch my Mom cry when her life savings went up in smoke when I did not match this year. The white rabbit the I know could never have done anything to hurt me. The BBB doesn't get hurt often. Also, it is rough to get a residency in the USA. It's hard, hard, hard work. But it's not impossible, and every year persons are hired by my program who have never worked in the USA. It's rough, it's hard, it's emotionally draining. But it can be done. Good luck - there is something out there for you.
