Exactly what my dad did. He was an ER physician. Been there and see what it does to an individual. Everyone thinks it is George Clooney and ER on TV. Not even close. I worked a 12 hours shift with my dad. Not my cup of tea bro. All walks of life walkin or are carted in. Got to look after then no matter what. My brother once said to my dad that he does nothing at work. So my dad took him in. My brother watched an old man die on the table after a car crash. My brother never said crap to my dad again.
