If you’ve ever waited for medical test results for yourself or someone you love...
And had the business day end with no one bothering to call you with those results...
And if the next day no one returned your messages.
And the office closed, without word...
Than you know how frustrated and furious I am.
How dare they be so cruel?
So cavalier?
So utterly unthinking?
I know it’s not fair to judge the entire medical establishment by a few utter shit-balls...
And I suppose it is remotely possible that some people in medicine might not be reprehensible assholes...
So, instead of wishing slow, writhing agony on all of them...
I restrict this curse to every doctor, technician and nurse who ever left a patient dangling, frightened and powerless...
prolonging their patients' suffering...
I dearly hope they soon find themselves stuck for a nice long time in that patient’s place of extended emotional agony and uncertainty.
That’s fair, isn’t it?
Amy
