Was I upset? Of course. Did I run around in a panic and insult the very men and women who were trying to help? No. The LAST thing I ever want to see is medical professional ranting, crying, waving their arms, running back and forth and exuding dramatics. In all instances, the medics who helped my family were exemplary in their knowledge, treatment, compassion and professionalism. They were endlessly patient and kind toward a mentally compromised family member who often called them to our house unnecessarily. One set of medics correctly diagnosed a cerebellar stroke (which the hospital intern missed). I have nothing but the highest regard for you and what you do. I'm so sorry that some people reward you with anger. In my book, you deserve respect and my entire gratitude. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
