I will vouch for what Gotlieb said. When I was 7, my sister - 5 at the time - was sent to hospital after an accident which left her with multiple mortal injuries. They saved her because the night before they lost another kid with almost identical medical circumstances, and had just gone through a formal after review of what went right and what went wrong treating them. That was in the 70s, and she's still going strong now because of that. Learning from your failures is as true as it gets.

[@chronos5090]

Writer here! I am glad I could show the medical profession as it is despite my lack of experience in that profession. I'm happy you liked the story and that you were able to relate to it! I wish you and your sister the very best! ~Chronos (MWMN19)

[@GeorgeOrwell-yz6zx]

Awesome. Glad she got the best care possible!

[@USS_Grey_Ghost]

Sad another child had to die to learn that though

[@scott644]

@@USS_Grey_Ghost Yeah I always get a twinge whenever I think about that.

[@Palanadine]

I may not have served in times of war, but in the madness of being on-call at a hospital, you unfortunately lose some patients: the severely injured, the terminaly ill. You do your best, but even so, your best may not be enough. But you keep going, because the patient on the next bed over may live thanks to your efforts. Care for everyone, give a prayer for the dead, but think about the living.

[@jonathanblair5920]

Not my kind of job (I can't handle the stress or the blood, lol), but I've a mountain of respect for medical professionals. American medical costs and insurance practices and may be garbage, but that isn't the fault of the men and women on the ground floor who are doing their best to save everyone they can.

[@GeorgeOrwell-yz6zx]

​@@jonathanblair5920 No medical system is perfect. For the most part, the quality of medical care in the US is very good and good care is expensive. There is really no way around it. Someone has to pay the cost. Some people feel better if they pay massive taxes and don't have to see what all the benefits of modern society cost.

[@zupaschnitzel3300]

Damn that got real. Medicine really is something...

[@BreadGuy01]

That last line though. Wow.

Looking forward to when our medicine is so advanced the Igor clan from Discworld becomes viable.

Professor's Gotlieb morale can be summed up in Reid Henrichs' catchphrase: "The lessons we learn today are written on the tombstones of others"

[@robertmiller2831]

Guillotine amputation is somewhat of a misnomer. In WW1 they started using flap-less amputation where you dissect the muscle and skin then cut the bone to where the skin and muscle retract. This lets you close the wound with all health “undamaged” tissue. Kind is like sewing up the end of a pants leg. Significantly cut down on infection due to left tissue being clean.

[@chronos5090]

Writer here! Thanks for the correction, duly noted.

[@robertmiller2831]

@@chronos5090 I had to look it up because I remembered in a civil war documentary they said a surgeon could amputate a limb in 3 minutes with a bone saw. They did use a guillotine type device in field hospitals in WW1. Basically it saved time for the surgeons because they could tell a nurse/orderly where to cut while doing triage. I found the flap-less info while looking up info on WW1 amputation. So the stories terminology still holds very true and the older surgeon who said the patient was already dead was probably using the actual guillotine as it is quicker. You bleed out in 3 min so 3 min in surgery is a lifetime.

[@GeorgeOrwell-yz6zx]

​@@robertmiller2831 I read an article about civil war amputation a while back. I believe it said a limb could be amputated in 8 minutes including the suturing. Tourniquets were used to cut off blood flow to the limb above the amputated site.The two methods were circular and flap method with the circular being faster but with a poorer outcome

[@TheDurid1]

Almost like a highlander story. Well done, and glad he kept adapting.

[@norneaernourn8240]

Ok this story is pretty powerful. Well done to the author.

[@thelaughinghyenas8465]

Bless the Narrator Bless the Writer That was a good one!

[@awesomechainsaw]

Damn is this one good.

[@Zander2212]

Hey, this reminded me of another story that I've been looking for and can't find. There was an alien race that considered any form of healing or repairs to be heretical, so they declared war on Humanity and lost terribly.

[@Great_Atuin]

I know the story you mean and was trying to find it too, but no luck. 😕 for anyone else trying to find it, it's not: -Why do humans never seem to die? -Finding the line between medic and necromancer -what is surgery? -human medicine -(the one about red human blood, can't remember the title) Please share if you ever find it OP 🙏

[@jonathancastillo5686]

Tell me what sorry is when u find it

[@barbecueshoes9212]

The writer used HFW as an excuse to write historical fiction but he did a good-ass job.

[@fearofthedead]

I am not a man of medicine... But I know that many codes I follow are also written with blood. Somebe died for certain rule or regulation to be added, so no one have to in the future. I am an architect :3

[@olegarioberrones1224]

Long life+intelligence=good Infinite life+intelligence=bad time So infinite life+low intelligence= ideal?

[@charliedulol]

Why would it be ideal?

[@chrisweiss6363]

Wasn't that about a bit@# slap of truth ?

[@najroe]

safety equipment also, steel toed boots, helmets, flame retardant clothing, hearing protection, safety glasses... not to mention first aid kits and training save ppl every day. Every piece of safety gear and every safety instruction is paid with by the lives, blood, tears, frustration and pain of all those who came before. some may seem silly, but having to hose blood from the shop floor because someone wanted to take a shortcut and his hand got ripped of, or someone doing the bare minimum and causing a fire... never fun. safety protocols NEVER come abut to be nuisance, they are there to help.
