Dr. Ben Carson
Reflection: I think Ben Carson is a good person for changing his life as a kid. If it weren't for him there would be a lot of conjoined twins.He is a successful person I agree with his quote.Poverty is a choice you can change and maybe turn out the other way and succeed a good life.Ben Carson has done over 17,000 surgeries.
