TRAGEDY

until the media put out the story and stoked the public to wrath, the hospitals were intractable. Their subsequent reasonability and willingness to explain appear to be the product of pressure, too.The fact that the quadruplets were born prematurely, that they were grossly underweight and were running a low temperature is not a reason to give up after being given a ready-made excuse for failure. It is a reason to fight on. It is a reason to defy the odds. That is what doctors swear their oath for. It's called the Hippocratic Oath. With it doctors swear to defend all life as best they can.

The other kind is known as the hypocritical one.


There shouldn't be any discrimination against the poor. I think it's the responsiblity of the hospital to ensure that proper care and transfer should have been given if it could not accomodate patients

Bah, I'm blogging..there's no cable yet
