How do you talk about personal experience in your personal statement?

Thanks

You try to mention the disorder as little as possible and instead, write about what you have taken from the experience, and how it has made you determined to progress in the field of medicine in order to help those in the same situation as your brother
I've seen in some personal statements, many talk about what you gained from this experience and perhaps how the doctor or experience really drove them towards medicine. Talk about the skills you gained and how it deepened your interest. Talk about what you learned about medicine through this experience just by observing doctors and how they work in the Hospital setting!

Good Luck
