I may be a little late in doing this but I just started watching The Good Doctor and oh my god it is so good! I had some reservations for watching it because it really didn’t sound like something I would like. I didn’t know the story line, it was just the name but now I guess I should say don’t judge a show by it’s name.
I don’t usually like shows about doctors, except for House, I really liked House, once I got around to watching it but I had the same reservations about it. I don’t like blood and I don’t like surgeries, even though I’ve had enough successful surgeries I should feel comfortable.
Apart from all the medical stuff which I don’t understand usually cover my eyes or look away, I really like it. It’s about a young doctor with autism and Savant syndrome. I like that it shows that anyone can do anything, no matter the diagnosis or people’s opinions. You can change people’s minds about you with your actions, just as Shaun frequently does.
A show like this can help people open their minds and learn about autism, realize that there is not just one kind and not everyone in the Autism Spectrum is the same. While it is not real because it is a TV show, it brings attention to the Autism Spectrum Disorder so people want to learn and talk about it.
I just started watching it today but I’m hooked.

I’m an aspiring writer still looking for exactly what I want to write about, with a lot of creativity, imagination and desire to write.
I studied Writing and Rhetoric at Syracuse University where I explored many different sides of writing through my classes and extracurricular activities in order to narrow my search for an identity as a writer.
I have written for Citrus TV Noticias and La Voz magazine, both of which gave me the chance to explore different mediums in which to write in. Through Citrus TV Noticias I also gained experience in translating from English to Spanish and vice versa, which is also something that I would be interested in working on since I am fluent in both of these languages. I was also an intern at Syracuse University Press where I got hands on experience in what goes into actually editing and publishing a book.
Through out the last four years I have faced a lot of challenges, which helped chape the person I am today. After being in a tragic car accident, being in comma, having a Traumatic Brain Injury, and being in therapy for over a year, I am a new me, willing to face challenges and knowing how to deal with them. I want to write about my accident and life after it to help others, show them it can be done and help in any way I can.
