LCB
yah i know what you mean about nurses. i don't get docs sometimes. they are so full of themselves and don't realize that if nurses didn't exist, they would be paralyzed as well. my boyfriend knows this too. so he's very nice to all the nurses and they love him for it
i'm sorry you had a bad experience. that's why i'm choosing family practice. i couldn't do trauma or something with high mortality like oncology. i'm not too good with death

it's odd how humanity is such a wonderful thing, but it is quite crippling for the person who has it. doctors i find for the most part are not so humane. few that i know or see do it for the right reasons - mostly motivated by the paycheck

general du watched his niece leave his estate the next morning, praying that the day would be uneventful and that after she had finished the emperor's request that that would be the end of it. Seeing as he had no control of the situation anyway, du chose not to worry about it and beagn instead to reflect on the visit he just had from pak jin jae. Though they had arranged to send the royal family extra provisions to help them while they waited, they were having a difficult time recruiting enough men to join them. The archfiend's spree of benevolence since ascending the throne had created a general sentiment of goodwill towards him on the part of the people. Until they had a strong enough force, there was no way that they could bring the crown prince out of exile.
strangely, Du found himself wondering about his involvement with the choes. having been friends with the archfiend for years, he knew that he was a good and honorable man at heart. true, he had been corrupted by power and prestige, but perhaps he had repented and changed his ways for the better. the people were certainly happier. hunger was less rampant thanks to new agricultural projects and a better system of grain distribution. new infrastructures were being built all over the country -roads, dams, bridges - creating more jobs. Since coming into power, there had been no more bloody skirmishes between opposing private armies and now, the army only moved in matters of defense now. Not only that, but the archfiend's common touch meant that the people felt less isolated from the emperor. the nation had not enjoyed a peace like this since before the 1170 coup. was all this progress really less important than his oath to the late king?
no, he couldn't risk it. what if it was temporary? what if he reverted back to a villainous man? but still, he kept thinking back to the man who rebelled only because he wanted a better life for those in the military, who had wrestled with him and been a worthy antagonist as well as a friend. he had no guarantee that the crown prince's reign would be any different than his father's. so in the end, which fulfilled his promise to the late king best...

i think if your motivations are pure - that is not a problem. if i wanted money i'd go into surgery, but i'm interested in the interaction between doctor and patient. i go in for the smiles, not the cash. my grandma has a doc that is great - he can't even take a lunch because so many people wait at his office to see him and he never turns anyone away - even if they don't have an appointment. my grandma was wondering why he wore a back support and orthopaedic shoes at the office. i told her it's so he can see ladies like her and still make it through the day in one piece
that's why i love dthe jang geum series. she embodied the best of what a doctor should be. i tired to get my boyfriend to watch it, maybe teach him some better bedside manner, but he was not as interested
