Home wuxuu ku dhashay Kingston-upon-Hull waxna ku bartay Westminster School. Wuxuu deeq waxbarasho ku qaatay Trinity College, Cambridge, laakiin wuxuu go'aansaday inuu noqdo arday ka mid ah walaalkiis, John Hunter, ee Isbitaalka St George. Hunter wuxuu guursaday walaashiis, gabayaaga iyo bulshada Anne Home, bishii Luulyo 1771. Wuxuu ka caawiyay Hunter baaritaanno badan oo anatomical ah, iyo dayrta 1776 wuxuu qayb ahaan ku sifeeyay ururinta Hunter. Waxaa sidoo kale jira caddeyn aad u badan oo ah in Home uu afduubtay shaqada Hunter, mararka qaarkood si toos ah, mararka qaarkood si dadban; wuxuu sidoo kale si nidaamsan u burburiyay waraaqaha walaalkiis si uu u qariyo caddeynta afduubkan. Su'aal: Meelaha uu ka caawiyay Hunter?
