On multilingualism and medical writing I arrived in Europe in September 1991 and was completely unprepared for the multilingualism of this continent. My first European home was the bilingual city of Brussels in the trilingual country of Belgium. Not quite the Tower of Babel but still overwhelming. Since then, I have lived in three more European countries and have observed how the EU grew and evolved. With growth came more diversity and yes – more languages.
