

Massoud’s brother enrolled him in the local high school. He also  helped him get a part‐time job in a

Hefeltlikequittinghisjob,buthedidn’twanttogiveup.



Oneday,whilehewasworking,Massouddecidedto

couldunderstandhim.Theyeveninvitedhi mtogooutforicecreamwiththemafterwork.



After Massoud had been working at

ElizabethBlackwell,theFirstWomanDoctor



Untilabout160yearsago,medicaldoctorswereallmen.ThiswastruenotonlyinAmerica,but

everywhereintheworld.ThatwasbeforeElizabethBlackwellbecamethefirstwoman

anywheretogotomedicalschool.Shelaterbecamethefirstwomandoctor.



Theroadtohergoalwasnoteasy.ElizabethBlackwellwasborninEnglandin1821.Herfamily

movedtoAmericawhenshewasababy.WhenElizabethwasayoungwoman,herfamilyhad

verylittlemoney.Elizabethhelpedsupportthefamilybybecomingateacher.Teachingwasone

oftheonlyjobsoutsidethehomewomenwereallowedtodoatthetime.Elizabethwas

thatshewassmartenoughtobeadoctor.Elizabethwasexcited.However,mostpeopleatthe

timedidnotbelievethatwomenshouldbedoctors.Nowomanhadevertriedtobecomeone

before.ThisdidnotstopElizabeth.Shestudiedmedicinesecretlyinhersparetime.Sheeven

rentedaroominthehomeofadoctor,sothatshewouldbeabletoreadhismedicalbooks.

Shealsohelpedthedoctorinhiswork.Shelearnedalotaboutmedicinethatway.



In1847,whenElizabethwas26,shedecidedtogotomedicalschool.Butnoschoolwould

admither,becauseshewasawoman.Onedoctorsuggestedthatshedisguiseherselfasaman

totrickaschoolintoacceptingher!


