WARNING SIGNS IIIn my previous post, I spoke that people should have warning signs labeled prominently on their foreheads. And if the world revolved as I pleased, perhaps it would have saved my friends a little tears and heartache.
[ Suicidal Precaution ]Rm 5 committed suicide this morning.
Much to the dismay of Mokie.
The poor lass took it quite badly. Engulfed with grief, she chided herself for and allowing him to be discharged. She told him he could stay if he wanted. But Uncle remained adament on being discharged.
She sat there, wiping the tears that could no longer be contained.
It’s seriously not your fault sweetie. You did all you could. You guys highlighted his suicidal thoughts and put him on SC monitoring. You all put your heart into his care. I’m so proud of you guys for being able to feel such emotions. It just proves that you care enough for your patients. Allow yourself to grief. It’s a process that you need to recognize and go through.
F4 will be here for you. You’ll not be alone.He crossed paths with you for a reason. Don’t let his death be in vain. Learn and remember him. He was a sad man. The care you guys provided offered him enough solace to keep him alive.
“ Can you tell me how he died? No. I’ll tell you how he lived..”It’s always difficult to go through such things. But such things are a part of reality. Sometimes, we manage to intervene in time. And sometimes, no matter what we do, we can never change the end result.
And when someone has their hearts set on dying, it requires more to correct that.
In our line, we come across many destitutes, neglected by the general public. The economy is booming. An increasing number of people are getting the opportunity for higher education. More people are buying homes. We’re breeding millionaires by the hundreds. We’re even sipping $7/cup coffee.
And yet the world is turning a blind eye to the plight of the people that is left behind. Are monetary handouts sufficient? Where should our real priorities lie?
Perhaps it will be easy to blame the government. Others. Or even ourselves. But blame is useless. It doesn’t have the power to modify the inevitable. Only taking the effort to recognize all these and converting it into action makes a positive change.
Everyone has the power to start. No matter how insignificant it may seem. A little chat, a show of concern, a simple greeting or smile every morning has the power to make miracles happen.
Sometimes, we’re all more capable then we imagine.On a lighter note, F4 bundled with Leni and Ana had a great time today. It’s good to have a close knit bunch to pour out those pent up feelings.
