Okay, I am having trouble in writing my SOP, prompt is describe your reason for pursuing graduate study. I got onto the slp track because I found it interesting. I have always been interested in the health related fields. My father was diagnosed with brain cancer when I was 5 which motivated my interest. However I have been reading advice NOT to include 'sob stories'. My question being should I include this info and how can I link it to the SLP field if so.. Any help is appreciated
