[@kirstenornelas881]

My two children wouldn't be here if it weren't for amazing doctors and nurses who work in NICU/ PICU specialties. As well as high risk obstetrics. They saved all three of us and I now have intelligent, amazing teenagers who test my patience but even then I'm smiling under the stern looks and reprimand/punishment I must delivery for whatever things they are pulling in that moment because I am overjoyed I still have them here to have to have those moments with. Happy, sad, upset it doesn't matter, every single moment I have with my kids is because the doctors and nurses who cared for us chose the path they did and care the way they do about their patients.

[@amyrivers9381]

I've been in and out of hospital since I was a young girl. I'm bedridden most of the time now but I'm still fighting. My specialist gave me two years to live at age 32, nine years ago. I often get asked to run seminars for medical students and I was also asked to be a part of registrars practical exams. There are a few things that I find essential in all medical staff. These are knowledge & professional experience, be able to admit that they don't have an answer to my questions but seek out the information and thirdly a good bedside manner makes the world of difference . My health doesn't fit in a nice hole and often junior doctors have no theory or practical knowledge. I'm really lucky that I've had the same gastroenterologist since I was 14. It's hard when you have 5 different medical departments when communication is often lacking. It takes really special nurses and doctors to work in the childrens ward. Not only having to treat a patient who can't explain how they are feeling, they also have to cope with parents who rightfully want you to treat their child immediately. Thank you to all the medical staff around the world. Xx

As a physician it was almost a test to see how long you could function with no sleep. It seems universal and it’s a terrible practice. Changing shifts is also a problem. A schedule of either days or nights allows our bodies to adjust much more than bouncing around. Unfortunately we don’t have enough physicians or hospitals to improve it at this point. What we don’t want to do is lower the standard because then we are all in trouble. She nails it when she said you’re only good if you really actually care about others.

He said they worked on my little boys for the whole three hours, they lost him a few times. He said he didnt think he would survive the night. I was on my own, completely on my own, he said and held my hand and i really appreciated that he was feeling this devastation with me. He lost a tear from his eyes. The other twin was very sick but stable. He promised i would see them very soon and he would look after them both. My gorgeous little twin B is now 5 years old and finished p.1 in primary school. He is a very healthy little boy, no physical illness and is never sick beyond a mind cold! I was told a few days after i had my twins that the nicu doc who saw me that night, after a nightshift, went home for a few hrs and came back in the afternoon on his day off!! (it takes him an hour to get to work from his home!) To visit the little baby he promised he would look after. It was the nurses told me this. I never saw him after that night, he was a true angel.

I really hope the parents of that pre-term baby don't get mad when they know their baby got poked 3 times before getting a successful IV access. I know parents tend to get ramped up when their kids are hurt but he was really trying his best. It took 6 pokes and 3 nurses to access a vein when I was hospitalized for a surgery at 6. Some kids just have really small veins. I didn't cry because the pokes doesn't hurt anywhere near my surgery wounds and my mom was constantly comforting me. I was very convinced that the nurses are genuinely trying their best to help so I wasn't in fear. I hope all parents tell their children that. No nurse or doctor wants to do any harm to any child.

I went mental at a doctor because he missed my sons spnial tap twice because he was shaking I asked him what he was playing at and he said he had never done one before a baby is not good first time practice material unless they explain its first time and get ur consent

[@TJSPARKLE]

Especially because it can paralyse them

[@m_t_650]

@@TJSPARKLE I hope your son is doing better now but please know that spinal taps can’t cause paralysis because despite the name the needle doesn’t enter the spinal cord to collect CSF but below it in a the cauda equina region. This is well below where the spinal cord ends so there is no threat to the cord. Nerve branches around the lower part of the spine may cause a electric shock feeling down the legs but not paralysis.

I love jr dr. Faheem and the lady dr! What amazing dedication and wonderful attitude about how hard they must work!

[@amandamayhue9057]

Props to them. There's no way I could do it

[@kerrypickett9600]

Do it

[@buddhapiyao1315]

i just could not watch the lumbar puncture on that baby... totally gave me goosebumps !! it was truly distressing .. Fahim you are an absolute sweetheart. Wishing you good health and Success.

[@Atiyyah72]

When Faheem was blowing bubbles me me tear up... keep strong n keep it up

[@613miami]

The little boy with the burns. What a sweetheart. Obviously very loved and well done everyone❤️

[@dexdacat]

I have never liked babies or kids and the second I heard that newborn cry and saw dad hold her for the first time I have never cried so hard in my life

[@J-FLaw]

Watching these needles and so forth go into newborns makes me super emotional...so I can imagine how Faheem is feeling...may God bless him especially in what he does🙏

[@daisybuckley5846]

Looking after children, more so babies must be terrifying (more so than all of the other medical fields) Faheem is so warm and lovely 😊

[@miarand57]

I’m in love with these Doctors-in-Training and their bright spirits & 1,000% dedication. I love the way their faces light up when they talk about doing what they love and although the responsibilities are off the charts and the pressure to be always perfect is overwhelming, this is what they are living for. Imagine doing the thing you love over all other things every day of your life - what an astounding BLESSING!! You never work a day in your life! Astounding! Thank you for this documentary! 😶🙏🏼💕

[@rosalie2762]

Right after the first emergency with a baby just being born and not breathing , I really cried my eyes out. Just 4 years ago i was a mom having an emergency c section. Now seeing the story behind the dokters present makes me so much more thankful for what they do for us ❤️.

[@nanwijanarko1969]

So the baby didn't make it? How do you break such news to the parent? I would feel so bad ..

[@gdaygday1209]

Love this show and honest view of the health care system, warts and all. Much respect!

[@osamach100]

I have worked in paediatrics for 4 months and it's very breathtaking

[@lorrainewadsworth9019]

Life is breathtaking. And children are the oxygen of our future, each and every one of us.

[@thebandinmybedroomtonight6477]

That 18 month old baby with the hot water burns on his chest was my little brother during the spring of 1973. Same age same exact accident. My mother was a wreck. My brother today is my only surviving sibling, now age 49 and has absolutely no memory of that accident.

[@BlondeQtie]

does he have scars?

[@doubleeggnoglatte829]

Soooo much respect for them, seriously, soooooo much respect! Bless you, beautiful souls!

[@juliakee762]

I’m an aspiring paediatrician here in the Philippines. One thing I wish is that the government should improve on their health care system. There is nothing wrong on improving the military but they should know that they have to do their work fair in all niches.

[@christinemanuelsson9580]

My heart is breaking for all those babies.. I should consider myself lucky to be able to watch this, while my 3 week old baby girl is laying on my chest, half asleep.. ❤️❤️

[@alyssa.herrin]

I cannot imagine doing what they do. This is a great series showing the real challenges in medicine; not just the dramatized version from Hollywood. It's heart-wrenching, but also very inspirational.

[@najma5153]

I need a Fahim in my life honestly. I wanna be as passionate as him and hopefully I will.

[@Loveduhmusic]

I am a pre med and I have two beautiful baby girls. It takes a strong person to pick peds as there speciality. I don't have the will to work with kids especially level 3 my heart would be broken.

[@doctorkathryn]

Why doesnt the government pay for more beds and support for these hospitals that are so stretched to the limit?? This can be a dangerous situation for patients!

[@GarlicGrinder9]

Because billionaires and millionaires tka e away rhe government's ability to raise taxes, hence money by earning too much too fast, without angering people. There need to be NO MORE BILLIONAIRES. I dont care what the tax rate is as long as I have some money for myself to find a home and food and utilities. The rest I earn can go to people that need food, or hospital beds, etc.

[@sheilaboston7051]

@@GarlicGrinder9 In Australia we pay a Medicare 2% levy on our salary, which includes free emergency hospital treatment. I think the UK should adopt something similar, to support the NHS - times have changed since it was first set up. (An ex-Brit.)

[@kathighfield]

@@sheilaboston7051 sadly all the UK need to is tax a couple of billionaires a little more than a penny and we would probably be a lot better. But there’s too many torys in our country who stand by the fact they don’t wanna give a penny away

[@TheAjRae]

Not like Australia is much better. The current gov wants it privatised, and the 100 top earning companies in Australia pay less tax than a waitress because of loopholes they exploit. Close tax loopholes and resist privatisation. An ex-Australian now Brit

Hats off to these incredible people, I admire them so much and they seem very humble and sweet too.
