However Far the Stream Flows

This is the story of an impossible dream that came true--from the earthen streets of Ghana's capital, Accra, to the surgical suites of Johns Hopkins University Hospital. It begins with a ten-year-old boy stumbling on an encyclopedia entry about the founders of the Mayo Clinic in a far-off place called Minnesota. He decides that one day, when he grows up, he will work there. He dreams of becoming a doctor, oblivious to the many obstacles that stand in his way. This is a story of how Dr. Kofi Boahene, son of a salesman and a bank teller, met and overcame those obstacles with the help of proverbial Good Samaritans--strangers--who seemed to pop up at just the right moment. Sustained by his faith and devotion to his parents and seven younger siblings, Dr. Boahene pursued his impossible dream until it came true. And then he became a Good Samaritan himself, joining dozens of missions to treat children in the poorest regions of the world, including his beloved Ghana. Described by CNN as "The Man Who Rebuilds Faces," he is inspiring a new generation of African students to follow in his footsteps--to dream without borders. -- amazon.com.
