A doctor entered the hospital
in hurry after being called in for an urgent surgery. He answered the call
asap, changed his clothes & went directly to the surgery block.
He found the boy’s father
pacing in the hall waiting for the doctor.
On seeing him, the dad
yelled: “Why did you take all this time to come? Don’t you know that my son’s
life is in danger? Don’t you have any sense of responsibility?”
The doctor smiled & said:
“I am sorry, I wasn't in the hospital & I came as fast as I could after
receiving the call…… And now, I wish you’d calm down so that I can do my work”
“Calm down?! What if your son
was in this room right now, would you calm down? If your own son dies now what
will you do??” said the father angrily
The doctor smiled again &
replied: “I will say what Job said in the Holy Book
“From dust we came & to
dust we return, blessed be the name of God”. Doctors cannot prolong lives. Go
& intercede for your son, we will do our best by God’s grace”
“Giving advises when we’re
not concerned is so easy” Murmured the father.
“Why is he so arrogant?
Commented the father when seeing the nurse.
The nurse answered, tears
coming down her face: “His son died yesterday in a road accident, he was at the
burial when we called him for your son’s surgery.
Right during the middle of
the surgery, there was a chilling sensation a moment of void. The doctor's
hands trembled and very unexpectedly the surgical scissors touched the heart of
the patient. So, it is a heart touching story.
MORAL: "Never judge anyone….. because you never know how their
life is & what they’re going through and any story because you never know
what is coming next.
