A couple of months is nothing, try years working at one. Most hospitals sent the worse case most problematic babies and toddlers to the hospital I worked at, as it was one of top pediatric hospitals in LA.

Obviously you have not seen tons of people coming into a hospital or an ER because they got scratch on their finger. Or someone complaining because they got a cold last night and need to see a specialist asap. Or seen someone that tripped and it felt like they broke their leg, only to get tired of waiting after half hour and leave. On and on. Are you kidding me, I would be surprised if someone from a hospital wouldnt say that. Most I have known are not very sympathetic to people complaining about pain. Now real emergencies, yes, but not aches and pains. One normally goes to Dr's office for pain and suffering issues, so maybe they might think otherwise and have an issue with it just like you (although I still find that hard to believe).

Just like this allergy vaccine the news was calling for, all because someone might get stuffed up nasal passages, itchy eyes and sneezing. Yea that sounds like a great thing to tinker around with our genetics over. *rolls his eyes* Sorry but no it is not worth the risk over ANY pain and suffering when we dont know the full impact of what it may or may not do. It IS worth the risk if it saves millions of lives.

I guess next you are going to tell me that they should bring back DDT pesticide because it is worth the risk in order to get rid of those pesty annoying pests which may also destroy millions of dollars of products. Or even more appropriate, to bring back Phenylpropanolamine because it is worth the risk in order to help alleviate all the pain and suffering for those people. Hell why wait years testing medicine at all if they know for certain it works, it should be put out on market immediately. Apparently you do not understand the principle of weighing risks vs the issue.

Now if you really want to get into the real bad stuff, it is when you have to watch a newborn suffering through drug addictions, while the mother is nowhere to be found. Or watching a baby have under developed lungs because there mom was a coke addict. Or hell just watching a baby struggle for their life with under developed lungs for any reason, maybe because they were a premie or w/e. Or fighting for their life for any and all reasons. All bad stuff, but none of that compares to watching a kid struggle when there is absolutely nothing any medicine can do. It is particularly painful when they are newborns, knowing that maybe, just maybe IF they were bit older they might have survived, or there might be treatments they could have had. And we arent even talking about one of the biggest killers in the US, which is tolerated and even legal. When you have to watch people get rushed into a hospital, knowing just by looking at them when they are rushed in they will probably not survive, and then finding out later that yes they did die all because of alcohol. So sorry but I am bit cynical after seeing so much and yet NOTHING is done to help save all those lives. I will never forget the fluffman quads, never.
