A Valiant Battle: A Journey with Schizophrenia - Wendel Miser

Descriere A Valiant Battle: A Journey with Schizophrenia - Wendel Miser

Miser, James: - I grew up on the East Coast of the United States with my father, mother, two younger twin brothers, and a younger sister, spending the majority of time in New England. My father was a mathematician with a PhD in this field, and he was an operations research and systems analysis professional. My mother had a Master of Science degree in Child Development; she spent most of our formative years caring for us as we grew and developed. We were a normal family and could not know what was to befall Wendel at the age of 28 years.I am a Pediatric Hematologist and Oncologist and have taken care of children with cancer and blood diseases for almost 50 years. I received a Bachelor of Arts degree from Dartmouth College, Hanover, New Hampshire, in 1969, majoring in Religion. While there I also was the director of the college's acapella singing group. In the summers during high school and college, I taught tennis to children. Although I intended to be a mathematician, I decided to spend my life working with children and entered Dartmouth Medical School with the intention to be a pediatrician. I subsequently transferred to the University of Washington, Seattle, Washington where I received a Doctor of Medicine in 1973 and trained in Pediatrics and Pediatric Hematology and Oncology. At the beginning of my experience caring for children with cancer, I accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of my life. This has been an important relationship for me since that time. I have worked as a Pediatric Hematologist/Oncologist at Ohio State University, the National Institutes of Health, Mayo Clinic, the University of Washington, where I was granted the position of Professor of Pediatrics, and City of Hope National Medical Center, where I was Chairman of Pediatrics. I also served as President and Chief Medical Officer at City of Hope National Medical Center as it developed a comprehensive cancer center. I have authored more than 100 manuscripts and book chapters. I worked as medical director and served as Chairman of the American Board of Directors of a child rescue organization-Christian Salvation Service, in Taipei, Taiwan, serving children and women. During this time, I was also Chair Professor of Pediatrics at Taipei Medical University where I was challenged to develop a Pediatric Hematology/Oncology program for the University. I also served as Chairman of the Board of Directors of a Christian High School in southern California and currently serve as Chairm
