i think it's important to have something to look forward to every day or every week, so when life drains you, it’ll help you to remember that you need to keep going a little longer because there's something waiting for you at the end of the week that might make you smile again.
“Nothing humbles you quite like being the person in the white coat to a patient in a hospital gown.”
In January of 2026, I was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia. For those outside the medical sphere, it’s a chaotic, aggressive monster of a disease, a type of blood cancer.
Sometimes - parents do have a tendency to talk about irrelevant stuff.
I mean - if asked about duration of fever - they will start with ‘how child was fine on Monday morning , went to school, had a fight with a boy - came back - was angry -then slept and woke up . Was fine in the night also - ate his favourite chicken curry.
Next day also he was fine - then on Wednesday morning he started having fever. So, since it’s Thursday morning - 1 day’
We thought he didn’t want to go to school due to the fight and still sent him but later call from school came that he is actually sick.
Now I understand- why this talk happens. And it’s actually okay for parents to blabber.
But many 50+ year folks have lost patience and are actually way to good with diagnosis. Their brain works like an algorithmic machine which needs data - relevant one.
More importantly - while a doctor in private practice might listen to everything that you say - including your chachi ki nani ki mausi stories - a doctor in Govt practise really won’t. They simply don’t have the time. They will actually shut you and ask - tell the damn answer to my relevant questions.
The said Senior Pediatrician- I’m not sure who he is. I’m reasonably sure - he also works in govt hospital along with his private practise.
He can’t turn of the govt persona which a lot of people expect.
Which is why people like Chat GPT.
Not because it’s better.
I can argue it’s objectively worse than any run old the mill doctor.
But becuase - it has that ego satisfying tone. It’s not you , it’s X. Oh - I’m very sorry.
It’s ‘Her’ movie on steroids.
People who go to a doctor are looking for ego massages + treatment.
People who use ChatGPT will get the ego massage.
I’m not sure whether they’ll actually get the correct treatment.
Which I may say - it’s better to have your ego bruised with an alive kid than a dead kid with your ego massaged.
Recently came across some notes I jotted down during intern orientation 5 years ago from the legendary Dr. Loscalzo and Dr. Marshall Wolf
As I begin the year as @BrighamMedRes Chief Resident, these lessons feel just as relevant today!
you don't even need a vpn to get around the telegram ban. telegram was literally built with censorship resistance in mind and has spent years operating in countries with far more aggressive internet controls than india.
history has repeatedly shown that blocking a communication platform is far easier to announce than it is to enforce.
