Bad days

Most doctors and nurses love what they do, and love the human interaction involved.  However, some days we are just not feeling warm and fuzzy.  Maybe there are problems at home.  Maybe the ER woke us up at 2 am to ask if we thought it was safe to discharge the asthmatic who cleared after one treatment (yes, it happened to me).  Maybe the weather is crappy.  Whatever the reason, some days we just aren't chipper.  We still do our best for the patients, we just are far more...businesslike about it. Oh well.

If you don't trust doctors...

I get that some parents don't trust the medical profession.  I get that they think medications are poison.  I get that they think doctors care about money more than patients.  I get that they think nature is better.  What I don't get is why they bring their kids to the hospital, then refuse to let us do anything!  Why?!?
