Even in the ED trenches of doom, it's true. <br /><br />Ninja--That is very cool, and yea I think we don't do enough thanking in our culture. My mother is an extreme thank you letter writer. I know I get it from her. Good legacy I think. <br /><br />Lorelei--I hope so! :)Albinoblackbearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15222730484450544498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3138625163039637769.post-79976562740588428842010-05-10T22:36:01.925-06:002010-05-10T22:36:01.925-06:00You'll be such a good doctor.You'll be such a good doctor.Lorelei Armstronghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07639663436142251951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3138625163039637769.post-85677821500820097462010-05-10T18:50:56.405-06:002010-05-10T18:50:56.405-06:00That is so great that you took the time to say Tha...That is so great that you took the time to say Thank You ABB. We had several patient speakers during first year and I happened to run into one lady in the bathroom after her presentation. <br /><br />I thanked her for coming to speak to us, for being brave and sharing her story. She almost started crying right there in the biffy and gave me a big hug. She said she had been really hesitant about speaking to the class, but had done it anyway as a favor to her doctor. She was so grateful to hear a Thank You she said she would definitely be returning next year.<br /><br />I guess I assumed the patient speakers always knew how much it meant to us to hear their stories. Now I always make a point to say Thank You to make sure they do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3138625163039637769.post-65966159991088442292010-05-10T17:49:18.812-06:002010-05-10T17:49:18.812-06:00The good patients FAR outnumber the bad.

So if all you read is medblogs, you won't know they even exist.<br /><br />But they are what makes it worthwhile.

Maybe you can ...How kind of you to write a note! <br /><br />Maybe you can join Grumpy (and potentially me) in becoming a neurologist. :-)OMDGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17937425894428802591noreply@blogger.com
