Dreams to find the cure for diabetes

This is the CommonApp essay prompt Ive chosen. For background to add to the story my father has had Type 1 diabetes for almost 20 years. He has suffered through a lot of pain from effects of Type 1 diabetes and I see his pain every day. He receives tons of medication in the mail and we would be struggling if his work didnt provide such good health insurance. I would like this essay to convey this story behind my desire to find a cure or fix for diabetes. I do not want it to focus on me actually discovering the cure but rather my reasoning behind it and what it stands for. Also do not worry about using any sources.
