There's a wonderful supply of good news today. Thank-you Elizabeth. She says nothing will replace skating and it may be in a totally different direction, but it will be amazing when she saves her first heart patient. She will excel at anything she puts her mind to. Blessings!

Wonderful and good for her!! It certainly would take a lot of work and dedication.

I think there have been a couple of other skaters in the past who studied medicine. I think the Americans Debbie Thomas and also one of the Jenkins brothers?
