Determined to fulfill their wishes, and her own, Jean worked to shed her American accent and study the culture and history of the land of her birth. Following in the footsteps of her medical missionary father, she became an ophthalmologist, practicing in Shanghai, a city relatively unscathed by Mao's ideologically driven economic policies. But her struggles were just beginning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHer daughter was diagnosed with cerebral palsy, and then came the Cultural Revolution, decimating China physically, spiritually, and morally.
