Why doctors and nurses are so important--his refusal to listen to consultant save little girl's life.

Consultants like this shouldn't be in the medical profession. This doctor we need more off, not people who decide to let infants die and its not worth their time.

He explained, that he is from South Africa and they have only limited resources, so if a child doesn't seem to have a chance it's not qualified for treatment

It would not have been a waste of time even if she had died. Bringing comfort to a fellow human (or another living creature for that sake) can not be a waste of time.

I wonder how long pregnancy was. I'm in my 30 weeks and my baby already has over 1 kg. 450g.... it could have been less then 24 weeks old pregnancy. In few European countries it's legal to end pregnancy like this because they don't belive fetus/baby can live on its own. This story shows how strong babies are when given a chance to live and not being killed in their mothers' wombs..

You sir are an amazing person and the kind of person we ALL should be. There are too many doctors who don't really care that much for their patients more so their fat pay cheques and have no real humanity. But people like you and doctors like you who really DO care and always go above and beyond are just wonderful.

I adore doctors who refuse to give up. The consultant should be fired. Nobody with such a negative attitude should work in this profession. What would they be saying if it was their child? How would they feel if they had a kid and were told to give up on it. Cruel thing to say..

The consultant was making a practical decision based on the fact that most children that size die. If the dr had the time to sit there and tend her that is great but most of the time they don't have the time or resources

    My grandma died of stage 4 lung cancer, though she never smoked, when I was 8 years old. I think of her everyday, my best friend, and am grateful for the doctors. They said she would inevitably die soon, but lived for another 8 months. Thank you doctors!

    They really need to stop making someone work for 32hrs. It might be dangerous for patients, nevermind for doctor/resident.

    Agreed. I'm a hospital registrar in the emergency room. The last thing I do is place an ID bracelet on the patient, lightly grasp their hand, and reassure them. It isn't much. Sometimes, it makes a difference.

    I'll never understand how parents can be so cruel. When you're pregnant, it's "I don't care if it's a boy or a girl so long as they're healthy." And then they drop their kids like trash when they can't handle something. Parents like that should be ashamed of themselves and never allowed a moment's happiness.

    I think because of character limits, they skipped a comma, but I read that several times like "dad had shot your mom" and "your brother wounded your sister" as if the dad and one child had both gone crazy. Had to read it a couple times to get it right.

    It is so sad that things like this happen. Abortion is one of those polarizing subjects that people can feel so strongly about, and women are suffering and dying because of it. Fewer stubborn opinions and more humanity, please.

    I happen to respond well to emergencies, and completely fall apart afterward. This poor mom must have felt so panicked and lost. I can't imagine seeing my child in distress like that and not knowing how/ not being able to react. It's a nightmare I'm blessed to not have, and hope I never have.

    YESSS!!! I'm an aspie. So is my son. We suspect my husband is as well (that's why we get along so well - we understand each other's quirks). Vaccines do NOT cause autism. Even if they did, I would not trade my aspie struggles for whooping cough, rubella, measles, or any other disease I've been vaccinated against. I am a bright thread in the tapestry of life. I am different, and I am worthy.

    Holding hands is very powerful. My brother was in an accident far away from home. Nurses in the hospital came everyday to talk and hold his hand. My brother, big man, said it was the kindness that kept him fighting and recovering. Most of the time we are afraid of touching. We shouldn't.

    Yes, it is so important. I was in the or, leaned over the surgical table getting a spinal tap done for the first time. I was so scared, and the nurse put my head on her chest and stroked my back and told me kind things. I was so shocked at the comfort i took from her gesture. I felt like I was with my own mom.

    When my Fallcon was admitted to hospital the last time, he asked me "are these the ladies who are going to help me die?" and then he said "thank you" to them. That's a rough job to have, but I know he died with as much dignity as they could give him.

    I read somewhere that the reactions of people in an emergency call on a Bell curve. 10% of people in an emergency are able to take charge and direct the needed response efforts. 80% will cooperate with what the leaders tell them to do. The last 10% will blindly panic and will sometimes interfere with rescue efforts. Nobody knows how they will respond in an emergency until they are in the middle of one. This is why first responders, medical people and the military train so much. They are least likely to be the ones who panic, but they train so that their training will take over if the mind fails them initially.

All the blood belonged to the dog which had gashed it's foot. the child had slipped in the dog's blood on the floor and cut his face

    i am so sorry Chris. You got an award because you did not give up on a Person that gave up on herself. That was very very brave of you, to fight for someone who had no fight in him left. I am sure it made a difference, at least for the Family knowing you were theretrying your darndest, i am sure they would tell you so if they knew how you felt. Thank you for what you did.

    "Plantbased"? Is this "VeganHeartDoc" self-righteously suggesting that conversion to her religion of veganism is what saved this patient? F*****g ridiculous and irresponsible...

    Wow. This hits close to home. My second boy was born with fluid in his forehead, between the brain and the skull. He had surgery when he was just 4 months old. I was 27, dad was 26. We were kids, turned grownups. He'll be graduating kindergarten and turning 6 yo on December 9th. FOREVER THANKFUL FOR DOCTORS AND NURSES. Thank you for telling your story :)

    ok... What about rescheduling or uber/lyft/taxi? if you are in the US you are already going broke to do the surgery what's a few bucks to save your life.
