Pediatrics is Easy

[DGlaucomflecken]

Hi it’s me again. Going through my videos, I’m realizing that I use a lot of my kids toys. They should probably get a commission

[marvelousoui]

My dad always said that vets and pediatricians are the best diagnosticians since they deal with patients who don’t talk or can’t explain their symptoms.

"healthcare system that values an appendectomy more than an adolescent's depression" damn, that hit a little too hard

Trust me. My doctors were super gentle about telling me I had cancer when I was 11, it's not easy to be that caring. Pediatric doctors are the best

I will always remember the phrase " smaller the coffin the heavier it is"

My paediatrician was literally the BEST diagnostician. He would take one look at me and know what was wrong without me even having to explain. I saw him up until my insurance wouldn’t allow me to which was 21. He was also a cardiologist. AND he was the kindest and softest person ever. He died in 2020 because he got sick on the job. May he rest in peace.

“Pediatrics is easy”
Must be nice to have patients that can speak for themselves, articulate how they feel, properly handle their own medicine, and don’t have entitled parents at your throat at 9:30 at night .

And all the while your patient can’t tell you what hurts or where unless they’re old enough to understand, and they think you’re the one hurting them because they can’t grasp the concept of illness. It’s rough.

I may be covered in glitter, but I haven’t smiled in 15 years

"That must be why your consult notes are so long"

Holy shit you fucking killed him.

Rounded in pediatrics twenty years ago, and it almost broke my heart. There was a little girl with pneumonia, maybe two, that was left alone in her room, crying. She was so tired and so miserable, she was just whimper crying by the time I got in for first rounds. No parents, and nobody knew where they were or when they’d be back. Room was a mess. TV on. Nothing at all of comfort within her reach. I scooped her up and took her to the nurse’s station (after I checked there were no droplet/contact precautions on her) and just held her wrapped in a blanket. She passed out and slept soundly for two hours. I will never forget her. I hope she’s grown and doing well.💙

As a teenager diagnosed with cancer I understood how messed up it was that these children had cancer along with me. Out of the 20 that started with me 5 are all that are with us today.😪

Not to mention keeping smile on their faces while watching kids fighting for their lives and parents dying inside every single moment. Pediatric Unit is where parents deal with living nightmares. I salute Pediatricians as its the most soul crushing and isn't for faint of heart, soul and character.

"I'm sorry, what was that?"

It was at this moment, he knew he f'd up.

i will forever be grateful for the nurse who told me i have cancer when i was 12. she handled it with so much respect and care and comforted me when my parents had left me alone. she answered my questions and was so kind. she made me feel not alone, stressed or scared and i was able to be comforted and kept my high spirits the entire 2 and a half years i had chemotherapy.

“Oh maybe you think it’s easy to code a newborn, or tell a child they have cancer”
there’s nothing left to soothe you incinerated him 🔥

The parent line hits more for me now being a parent. As an attentive and loving parent you swiftly realize that your standards are not shared by many and it breaks my heart.

Hoof, that’s a KO

Growing up one of my best friend’s dads was a pediatric neurosurgeon. He was literally one of the best people I’ve ever known. Most days he was lively and happy, but every now and then he would come home, go straight into his office, and he wouldn’t come out for days. We knew those were the days he had lost patients or things had gone badly. Despite all of that he continued to be an amazing father and do everything he could to save his patients. That man was a hero to me. His daughter is now a pediatric nurse following in his footsteps.
