I was considering writing these memoirs for some time, wondering if anybody will be interested to spend time reading something produced by a nonprofessional writer. In the last twenty-six years of my activity, I was a full-time professor of pathology at the University of South Carolina, School of Medicine. In this capacity, I wrote scientific reports and reviews, lecture handouts, and protocols and a good number of grant proposals. None of those would qualify as literature, and they were not supposed to. This is not said to excuse my lack of professional experience, just to explain my hesitation in approaching this challenge. I should add that English is actually only my third language, Romanian being my native language, and French that of my maternal grandmother and the rest of my family in France.
