In my comics from last month, during my visits to see my mom in the hospital, I pointed out how scared and tired she was. At times she actually thought she may be dying. All of those thoughts, I found out later, were placed in her mind by that doctor who frst saw her. He only saw her once (maybe twice) but never stuck around long enough to give more details or be more informative. When I heard all of this, I was pissed!

Okay, sure. The life a doctor, making rounds in a hospital, can be overwhelming. Dealing with so many patients and having to know so much about so many, can be difficult. But part of their job, along with the vast knowledge and expertise about medicine and illnesses is knowing how to deal with and comfort their patients as well.

Not being such a dick.
