THE THOMPSONS WERE OUT IN
FULL EFFECT
In support of the youngest Thompson,
who is destined to be a brain surgeon.
Ms. Aliyah Thompson graduated with
honors . She was honored among the
elite of the class of 2019
When Ms. Aliyah was at the tender age
of 5, she was asked what she intended
to grow up to be. Her response, a doctor.
I was in awe.
So I took the liberty of asking ;
“Okay you’re going to fix my small and
large intestine?”
She quickly retorted, “No Uncle Prince,
I am going to take out your brain fix it
and put it back in.”
This response from my five year old
niece blew me away. She wanted to be
a brain surgeon and neurologist. As I
made my way to the entrance at the
auditorium, a beautiful lady in a red
dress was handing out the programs,
while collecting admission tickets. She
asked my brother Kenny and I, who we
had come to support. When he told
her Aaliyah Thompson, and she replied
“My premed student”, I began to cry,
overwhelmed with the joy of knowing
she had stuck with her original intent.
