Maybe that's because some people wouldn't let her be part of it

Hey, don't blame us!

Shame on you! How dare you sit there and judge. Do you what it takes to marry a soldier and leave your country behind? Your family? Do you have any idea what it feels like to be different? I do. I know how cruel people can be. I still hear the jokes, the whispers. I know the difference just what friends can make. Were we too busy, too special to reach out to Min-Ji? We should all should feel ashamed. She needed help and we weren't there for her. Tomorrow I could be the one who needs help, or maybe it could be you.
My older brother died of leukemia when I was twelve. I always wanted to do something for him. Doesn't pay the bills though. When I was doing my residency I realized that I was going to be in debt until my 40's if I didn't do something. The Army offered me a good deal. I give them ten years, they pay off the loans. The only catch was, they needed ER physicians at the time, not pediatricians.
This won't be like the usual homecoming. Normally we have a big blow-out with music and food and banners and all that stuff. But we couldn't do that on such short notice.
