Dad’s Lewis scholarship enabled him to realise his dream of a medical career and go on to pioneer nuclear medicine in Australia. Dad’s achievements drove my pursuit for academic excellence and were an inspiration to me and my two sisters (who also pursued careers in medicine). My family is living proof the intergenerational impact such scholarships can provide.
