I am so tired of doctors who either didn't have people skills when they went into medicine (but great memories so therefore the academic potential) or -in my IF and cancer journeys - doctors who felt that if you didn't leave the room in tears, then you didn't fully grasp how dire your position was (and they should redouble their efforts to be bleak when they next saw you).
How wonderful to meet a person who went into being a medical professional for all the right reasons...to help and give comfort to other people
And how wonderful that fate led you to him
Thinking of you every day Tracy
