thoughts

Juz watched grey's anatomy season 6 epi 6. Its a really good episode..thats how i feel. It tells a lot about the things happening around in our lives. Mistakes that can cause irreversible consequences, in these sense, death of a patient. Everyone is simply so caught up in their own chase of ensuring their future in the hospital and they fail to realise what their purpose of their job is. The purpose is a simple yet difficult to achieve. Responsibilities are shirked when it comes to finding out the truth and the blame game starts. Issit that difficult to take ownership of the things one has done and realise that they are all at fault? Guess things aren't as simple as it seems.

On the other hand, I felt that the small little things that doctors do make a great impact on the patient's life. Sweet words and small talk goes a long way...helping the patient through difficult times and getting pass the pain phase. May seem weird for a doc to do that but i guess helping the patient isn't really all about treating the patient with medications and stuff. Its everything about the patient..even if it means stepping out of comfort zone, juz like how little grey had to control her emotions within her.

All doctors have a common goal, a simple yet difficult one to practice, so i shall end off with something i really like that han said at the end "that's our job. didn't you make any mistakes? weren't you distracted? we are lucky our patients didn't die and so we didn't get caught."
