So, my patient from yesterday, the man with the bleed in his brain? He's not going to make it. This is the part of medicine that they don't even try to prepare you for in school. Why don't they? How could they? This is where I get angry at medicine...he was walking and talking yesterday morning. Today, they're preparing the family. Crap.

I think that compassion is a great thing in your business, but I can see that attachment to every patient would burn you out in no time.
Oof. I'm not sure I could manage to remain strong day in and day out with what happens in your field. *hugs*
Oh no, so sad for that fellow
. This is where the road gets tough, sugar, trying to keep yourself slightly emotionally apart or you will make yourlself crazy. So darn sad though 
Have a Happy Mother's Day
