....another day's end. So muchh is happening. I mean can we even fathom the things that has happened around the world in the past 24 hours? The world besides can we even make sense of all the stuff that has happened in our own lives during the day?? Sooo complicated...
The patient i was assigned today had undergone a below knee amputation. 52 year old man.... Unmarried.... And no place to go... no one to look after him.. But he won't admit it. A simple "insufficient social support" would suffice for my notes.., and my case file would have an "interesting case".. But what would happen to him ?
Long Long ago,when we started clinicals, I would worry the hell about things like that. But now i know that i can't play the god. All that we can do is to be normal towards him i guess.
Not sympathetic, not pitying, just normal. Anyway i know that i hate being pitied, so do unto others as thee would do to thyself.
