1. My parents were both born relatively poor outside of this country and moved here for college
2. I am a URM
3. Experienced a very serious medical setback during high school. HOWEVER, this is the focus of my PS. Is it appropriate to talk about it again in light of how it specifically would make me a diverse addition to the school?
Between 1 and 2, you have more than enough material to write an effective DS.
