We had a patient at the Trauma Center, who used copper wire to stitch himself closed when he fell and he was telling us how "all this first aid stuff is so easy" and that he didn't know why we "make a big deal of it." What he overlooked while stitching himself closed, was the infection that he got from doing it himself which had turned to sepsis.
He also used concrete to remedy his broken ankle and it took 45 minutes for us to cut through the concrete so we could apply a plaster of paris cast.
The guy was one major piece of work, one of those people who the doctor said "has just enough knowledge to be dangerous." As in the saying 'a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.'
I didn't know what that saying meant until after we had this guy as a patient.
You have no idea how bad I feel about the post that you quoted... not your fault, at all... it's just that the person I was talking about passed away recently... right after I told her son that she was going to be alright. So upset with myself....
My father died from sepsis last August. And he was doing everything the doctors told him to do. It's so hard to hear some of these stories where people aren't even using common sense. God bless you EMTP513-you see so much on a daily basis that the rest of us are sheltered from.
(((((Lin))))) Healing thoughts, prayers and vibes. Give it some time, Lin. Let's see how things turn out.
Hold you in my thoughts and prayers Linda. Hope you find another doctor. This doctor seems not to be a good one.

You have no idea how bad I feel about the post that you quoted... not your fault, at all... it's just that the person I was talking about passed away recently... right after I told her son that she was going to be alright. So upset with myself....
Dear sweet Flake, do not be upset with yourself. We all told him his mama would be alright. It is what we do to comfort our friends, and things were getting better. The Lord just had other plans. (((Flake)))
Dear Flake, none of us is perfect, despite having the best of intentions. Your friend's son understands and appreciates your motives, and without a doubt does not share your thoughts that you failed him in some way by being kind. For my part I'm proud of you, though not surprised that you care enough to try to help.You have no idea how bad I feel about the post that you quoted... not your fault, at all... it's just that the person I was talking about passed away recently... right after I told her son that she was going to be alright.

Whatever the evil is, big or small, illness or injustice, to do nothing is the worst thing... your caring is the better way, Flake....
Thank ya...and speaking of good words, here's a saying I recently discovered: "Hypocrisy is vice's tribute to virtue."
Spidey, Frank and Ebdim... thank you very much for this... I had been talking to Patrick quite soon before his Mama left us and had just finished telling him how the diagnosis would be no problem... and I truly believed it--I bawled and bawled when I heard she was gone, and felt so awful for possibly getting his hopes up when in the end there actually was none.
If I could go back... I would change how I dealt with hearing her diagnosis if I could... anything to have made what was coming easier for him.

Have you talked to Pat lately? Does he know your feelings about this?
I have corresponded with him, but I couldn't tell him--I don't want to make him feel worse than he already does... what happened wasn't really anything about me, I don't want to make it about me... which might happen if I talk to him about it.
I think he probably knows that I just wanted the best for him and Mama... but it's something that I wish I could have done better, that's all.
Yer a gentlewoman.
