'dOcToR' i aM !!

 


Been to the hospital several times before
As a patient though
But today it is different
As DOCTOR I am

Did what seemed impossible
Turned a vision into reality
Finally living my dream
As DOCTOR I am

Been there
Seen that...done things
Which is beyond the wildest dreams of even the blood related
As DOCTOR I am
Helped a son
Understood the pain of parent
Relieved the suffering of someone’s sibling
But when my family needs me
It’s difficult for me to be around everyday
As DOCTOR I am

Prescribe medicines
Advice healthy diet
Enough sleep
But skipping meals
Is what I do
Staying awake with the emergencies
As DOCTOR I am

Genetic errors
Developmental errors
Equipment errors
Medical errors
Any error...but first to be blamed
As DOCTOR I am

No weekend
No may day
No season
No natural disaster
Have to be at work any day
As DOCTOR I am

Can’t demand for my own rights
Can’t expect a pay rise
Can’t protest
Its crime to do anything else other than my duties
As DOCTOR I am

Did things which nurses are supposed to do
Worked like ward boy
At times became attendee of unknown
Can’t blame anyone for lack of staff or support
As DOCTOR I am

Sometimes angry
Sometimes selfish
Sometimes careless
Sometimes lazy
Sometimes emotional

As along with being a DOCTOR
A HUMAN I am!

[ PS - nothing personal :p ;) ]
