I wouldn’t want a lung transplant done by a surgeon who is being pressured by his wife During surgery calling him asking what time are you going to make it to the recital! She didn’t have much respect for the career he chose, that’s not the only event he wasn’t able to attend, and having his wife harassing him during lifesaving surgery, no wonder they divorced.

@@laureendempsey924 Few years later, got divorced, he was arrested for DUI he is an alcoholic

I agree with @be4202 , you are making an insane statement. Lung transplants are really risky and often turn out not great. The dance recital is not that important comparatively. That lady married a transplant surgeon; she knew what she was getting into for quite a while

Sam is such a beautiful baby. He has wonderful and loving parents and I pray he will be ok.💞

@@lindajack7969 The fact his dad is in the military stationed in Iraq - how stressful to have a baby with severe heart problems & a sweet wife who needs you by her side. Very difficult. Hope the baby is doing well.

How is his quality of life?

It reminded me of when my husband came back k from Iraq. I cried as much out of relief as anything else. I got behind someone driving slow on the way to the airport, that was frustrating.

It is, and it is so hard to stop CPR on a young patient. We go an hour or linger sometimes just not wanting to give up. It is heartbreaking.

@@MiracleFound I really admire medical professionals. I am a teacher in early years education for the last 25 years and have seen some awful injuries. I am so grateful we just have to stop the bleeding and pass them on to medics. Its quite traumatic, we had a bad head injury once pouring blood and I was really scared, I still have nightmares about it. Thank you for the job you do, it must be very emotionally draining

@Francesca O'Connor I really admire teachers, especially those who teach young children. Your job is so important! We all have what we are best at and for me it was saving lives. I love what I do despite the heartbreak, because most of the time we win and it is worth the effort.

@@MiracleFound is the most popular

😢💔😓

May i ask what it's called?

I was going to go in to the medical but it cost. Way to much money that you have to work to survive and you also have to work to pay off the student loan I've seen so many nurses. In IT. IT Manufacturing to pay off school and had to work one part time job just to pay off school is wong

My brother is an ICU nurse and he has been left a shell of a person. From the start to now he has had 150 patients pass who he was in direct care of. He recently got reviewed and got a really small amount compared to the other nurses that he is in charge of. He’s drinking too much regularly now. That breaks my heart because I know he just is trying to numb the pain. I get it. I hope he can come back. I am really worried.

And it’s usually the best people who burn out first

I'm a CNA for 40 years I got so burnt out

IF YOU DON'T LIKE YOUR JOB QUIT!! DON'T COMPLAIN!!!

I am sorry for the loss of your husband and so glad he had 20 more years with you.

I'm so sorry for your loss .Hugs and prayers.✝️☮️💜🤍💜🙏

So very sorry for the loss of your dear husband. Mass Gen is a world renowned medical facility & I am glad they were able to help.

Well.. hopefully he didnt kill civilians with children when he was there..

Me too, I would love to see more of this series….

Betty Gitzke SAME!!

Betty Gitzke I SECOND THAT!!

That's that show that doctor Oz's daughter was on No?

9:18

No it because hospitals are there to make money and insurance say no this is what we are going to pay you so the greedy hospitals go after the patient for what they feel the insurance company doesn't want to pay

I've NEVER been in and out of a Dr's appointment in 15, I had a great doctor for 17 years straight, now one I've had 7 years, never has happened doubt it ever will, the closest is over the phone check ins now, one of covids good things

The problem is that most of are too lonesome and have mental issues regarding perceived life and want in but once there then all staff has to focus on them and drag out to hours and hours on them so they just get attention and a medical record so they can exploit it later .. when others are emergency and priority like the E.R. was originally designed for. If they go to their Dr. Who has already tired of the time wasting don't do it anymore.

You’re jaded huh

Don't know what Dr office you go to but it's NEVER in and out in 15 minutes. Lol People do the best they can. There are many reasons why they chose to come to the er versus a Dr office. Is it after hours? A holiday and their office is closed? You never know. Patience for them goes a long way. And educating them helps. Geez let them know you understand their concerns but the critical care comes first. They don't always know hiw it works. Some view its just first come first serve. Educate, patience, compassion. They're the reason you have a job.

Just a comment... Put a bright colored arm bracelets and same color on the charts to make it clear... 😥

Isnt dialysis considered to be life saving and not permitted as a DNR? Thankfully Boston caught the mistake and allowed the ladys body to set her free.

I wanna hear!!!

Anam t stories So am I. It’s really horrible when someone that young passes away. RIP

Oh I cried, so many children have asthma and he had his whole life ahead of him 😔😔

I see this an 18 yr old lose his life, … hear of people celebrating their 100th birthday, which is amazing … then the rest of us, somewhere in between … sometimes … I just don’t “get it”.

i thought the same

They never say anything,they can't diagnose anything.

@@sarahalbers5555 sometimes they do, which is what happened here

i was in a situation where at the ultrasound..the tech was mesuring..the legs arms...etc...and then ..nothing..we felt something was wrong..she stayed there...about 2-3 minutes...we asked her...what was wrong...we knew by her bodylanguage ...it was all wrong..the only thing she said...the doctor is coming..and she left...so ..in my own situation...even if..she wasn't in a position to tell us anything... i believe she should at least told us.. there might be something and because she is not sure...the doctor will tell us... because...the situation.... was traumatic... we were with a family member..she had bith 5 childfrens..so..she sure understood...that something was wrong...poor woman...our relationship never been the same after this..

@@voicije agree. When you've had multiple kids it's easy to tell when something's wrong. I had problems with my last and was sent for an emergency scan. Was so awful! The tech didn't speak and wouldn't show the monitor. I knew I had placenta issues and the silence freaked me out. She only spoke to me when I asked her if my baby was still alive and her response was only yes he's alive. Her report went straight to the doc who came to tell me I had ten minutes before they were going for an emergency C sec.

I totally agree with you. I am a nurse in NC and I just could not believe what I was hearing coming from this nurse in the ED 😲

Try working on a Psychiatric ward. That was minor

You have never worked in Boston I’m guessing

It’s called tough love. If I got drunk to the point of being near death I hope someone would have that same conversation with me

She seemed seriously burnt out

@@brickidloveslegos Love Boston, and the people there. The Boston humour and wit. No shenanigans are those doctors.

@@brittneyjoaquin4062 I understand her, if you see this every day, get pee and puke over you from these kind of people, i think see responded great, you are an adult your actions have quonsequenses

@ actions have what?

You've never worked at the ER as mass gen, huh lol. I worked there and its insane. Sometimes these people need tough love.

@@brittneyjoaquin4062 Try doing her job just for a day. You would quit.

@@taniaivetteseverino2964 my friend works there!

It's all for tv.

Fuck off.. idiot.. here goes another Karen..in male form

He probably asks himself this everyday It's a total sacrifice to be a ctvs surgeon

@@sanahafreenansari8988 lol

Dance recital. His daughters mental wellbeing is as much in his hands as a patients life. Both can be life and death in the long run. There are other doctors, she doesn't have another dad.

Too funny!

No why?

I wondered about that too.. I was worried for the baby. But in some ways natural birth is better isn't it?

Its been long gone.

Its on youtube....who watches TV these days?

I wanted an update as well I hope he is doing well.happy and healthy I hope

Me too! The love and anxiety in his voice was so palpable! He sounded so vulnerable and strong in his love at the same time. ❤

That's not true. If his blood alcohol level is over is over the legal limit the hospital can't release him. His family wouldn't come to pick him up. So he would have stay even to the point of restraining him until his alcohol level is under the legal limit.

Frank Barrios I understand how you feel, but nurses keep doctors from accidently killing you.

Most often your nurses who have come up in the “trenches” know a whole lot more than most of your new doctors and residents and they have to have help!!! These nurses have been treating these types of patients numerous times a day for several years! I am NOT a nurse in case anyone was wondering!!!

After reading your post it's quite evident that you have never worked in the ER and/or OR. A good, experienced nurse usually has way more knowledge and hands on experience than a new resident. Being book smart is not what makes a good doctor

Nurses and DR work as a team .....or should .....to contribute to the patient’s care

Honestly the new residents or DR should at least listen to SR nurses advice

Naomi Solbak yes, I know WHAT it is doing, I want to know what the device doing the compressions is called. Thank you.

Anna DuVall the "thumper"

It's called the Lucas something I believe. In another episode someone refers to the machine by name but I don't remember what episode. Google it and you'll find it

That's really cool.

A M Because a 4 year old can understand that....

But now it’s time for you to grow up.

@A M it’s still your dad. Other dads show up. It’s hard for a child to get over.

He didn’t because he made it and a personal high? It was a lung transplant. Don’t be so cruel.

it always seems so chaotic in these ER's comparing to the UK and Aussie ones

Not only that, patients in UK and Australia will not end up with a bill, no matter how complex their treatment was.

@@victoriousvalentine9779 but how high are ur taxes tho 🤔

Also Bee D, well then, im glad u live there

@@driley5004 fair point but the extra taxation we pay ( noting there is no taxation on first AU$18,000 whereas US tax from first dollar earned) in most brackets does not equate to anything like US pays toward health insurance . There are also significant benefits paid to families on incomes on a sliding scale to well over AU$100,000 ( depending on how many children) and single persons on lower incomes. We pay more for things like houses, but that’s because our wages are higher. It’s great to know that no one who is on a low income or who doesn’t have work will never have to go without basic health care.
