My English is not good to express..., but I want do it in Portuguese.Sou Valdo Correia Gomes Ié, agora residente de cirurgia geral. Cidadão do mesmo país com o Dr. Joaquim Silva Tavares, 'Djoca di 100'. Não conheci Djoca pessoalmente, mas pela sua alta capacidade e de 'grande legados histórico' de bom aluno no actual Liceu Nacional N'krwamah, fez com que eu me apaixonei pela sua personalidade e querendo um encontrar-me com ele e conhecer-lhe de perto e poder agarrar o seu livro de Critical Care para ler e aprender algo. O meu Orgulho Nacional na área de Medicina e de Convicção de personalidade humana. Tio Djoca, fique sabendo que é um dos poucos GUIGUIS que me espelho para o bom rumo da MINHA VIDA.Até um dia...
