78Respiratory TherapyLaila Hamideh“I have always wanted a career in medicine—but myfamily comes first. I have four children and realizedthat being a doctor was impractical. I graduated fromPalomar College in San Diego thinking I would go intochild development or psychology. I came to ELAC tobrush up on my academics and happened to take thebasic respiratory therapy course with Ms. Rees. I hadfound the perfect career—a chance to help people ina medical setting and still have time for my family.”Laila Hamideh admits she is happiest when sheis learning something new.
