Good on ya! :)

A grandmother who left school at 16 has qualified as a doctor — at the same time as her daughter. Mum-of-six, Bev Greensill fulfilled her lifetime's ambition as she graduated in medicine with Amy, 22, from Liverpool University.

Bev, 46, stacked shelves in Sainsbury's to support her children during 10 years of study for A-levels and a degree.

Divorced Bev, from Chester, said: "I worked flat out during the day and at weekends when the kids were with their dad.

"Sometimes I felt like a zombie but I never quit."

Funny , I'd rather have an older doc look at me than a young pup, whether they're both out of school or not
