Veterinary Clinician, Veterinary CLinic

I am a veterinary clinician. I came to Alaska to get as far away as I could from the mall-rat lifestyle of my childhood where I never felt that I fit in. I have one child, a daughter. I have a good relationship with my ex-husband and her stepmother. I've never been one of those veterinarians who concentrates their practice on the lucrative household pets field where they only know dogs and cats, nor have I been a livestock specialist although it is certainly within my skills. Now that my daughter is in college, I am considering working in the third world where healthy animals are a necessity for the community to survive. This I won't do until my daughter finishes college, but it is an avenue I am exploring.
