This month I completed my second Australian fellowship in Functional, Female and Pelvic Reconstructive Urology from the Royal Melbourne Hospital @TheRMH. Proud and humbled. Thanks to everyone who supported me on this journey, particularly my parents. I must thank my fellowship director Dr Sandra Elmer @sandyelmer gave me an opportunity for further training and patiently taught me her surgical mastery and knowledge. To her I am forever grateful. Special thanks also to the Director of Urology at RMH Prof Lawrentschuk for his support and to Mr Dinesh Agarwal who pushed my reconstructive skills further, as well as a big thank you to everyone else in this amazing unit who taught and helped me every step of the way. I also must thank a person who was my rock this past year: Faye Dolkas, the unit manager: σε αγαπώ και θα μου λ είψεις πολύ. الحمدلله الذي بنعمته تتم الصالحات أكملت هذا الشهر التدريب في التخصص الدقيق الثاني و الزمالة الاسترالية في المسالك الوظيفية و النسائية و جراحات ترميم و تدلي و هبوط اعضاء الحوض و السلس البولي من مستشفى ميلبورن الملكي و جامعة ميلبورن…كل الشكر لمعلميني و لكل من ساندني في هذه الرحلة و اخص بالشكر والدي و والدتي… صور من حفل تكريمي مع مسؤولة الزمالة و معلمتي الدكتورة ساندرا ايلمر و رئيس الوحدة البروفيسور نيثن لورنتشوك
