I had been a nun for three years now, and each month I had been sending ten dollars to pay off part of my medical school loans. There was a wonderful financial aid officer who each year helped me fill out the form to ask for forgiveness of the loan. All the doctors and financial aid officers that worked with me when I was in medical school knew me very well and they formed a committee to work on this. They said that if the government wouldn’t grant me forgiveness, the school of medicine would pay off my loans. But that didn’t need to happen.
After three years, the government forgave my loan. I got a very short letter that said, “Your loans have been forgiven.” I didn’t have to pay any more. I felt so lucky that during the years I’d been in medical school, I’d made such deep connections with the people there, and they realized that when I chose this path, I chose it with all my heart. I’d do everything I could to heal myself and to offer that healing to others, but there was no way I could do it as a doctor. So that letter of one sentence was a reaffirmation of my faith in my practice, my faith in my decision, and my faith in this whole universe that worked together to help me realize my deepest aspirations.
