Should I immigrate to the U.S. and leave my family behind, knowing that I won't be able to see them for an indefinite period of time? This was a difficult question I had to ask myself when my father

who lived in the United States, offered me the opportunity to move with him and go to school here. First, there was the issue of leaving behind the part of the family I had grown up with, especially my mother. Second, I hardly knew my father because he had left my country when I was 4 years old. After much thought and family discussions, we all decided that this was an opportunity that would open doors for me and that would give me a better professional and personal preparations than those available in my native country.
