For as long as I can really remember, I wanted to be a doctor.
Debi Thomas I am not really sure how I got interested in medicine. Debi Thomas I begged my mom to let me start skating. Debi Thomas I just thought that it was magical having to glide across the ice. Debi Thomas I tell people I'm too stupid to know what's impossible. I have ridiculously large dreams, and half the time they come true. Debi Thomas I was always very strong in math, physics and calculus. Debi Thomas I watch a lot of professional skating, and I am really looking forward to going to nationals. Debi Thomas I would make my mom buy me the toy doctor kit. Debi Thomas It is great to be a part of the whole skating family, and it makes me feel ecstatic that my name will be among the greats of the sport. Debi Thomas My skating is a very emotional thing that comes from the heart, never doing it for the medal. Debi Thomas Plus, it also meant a lot because it was the Olympic year, and if I wanted a shot at Olympic gold I needed to be national champion. Debi Thomas Probably the '86 nationals. That was my first real national title and first real statement I ever made in figure skating, and my life changed after I returned. Debi Thomas Right now I am doing my residency in orthopedic research. Debi Thomas So I went for engineering, specifically product design, which I enjoyed. Debi Thomas The Olympics: not one of my better memories. Debi Thomas Then I went on to win worlds, which added to the change in my life. Winning that was outstanding, but I skated better at the nationals. Debi Thomas What was most important to me at the Olympics was going out there and performing my best. When I messed up the first jump combination, which was my big move, it hit me that I messed up the program of my life. Debi Thomas |
