Lilia at work

That is a picture from my working life. It is taken around 1954 at Sheinovo hospital.

[Lili graduated from the medical university in Sofia in 1952. She has been an obstetrician for many years and she loved her job. ]

We are a big medical family - my father was a physician, my brother became a medicine graduate and went to work in a village as a physician and then started work in our town [Dupnitsa]. His wife is from
Blagoevgrad. She is an assistant pharmaceutist. They have a son who is also a physician, as well as his wife. And I have been an obstetrician during my whole life. I have always loved my job.
