A very powerful photo that has taken the world by storm. The photo, though simple, has shed new light on how doctors really feel when losing patients. The hardest part for doctors would be telling the family that they had lost a loved one.
With a caption, “An ER doctor steps outside after losing a 19-year-old patient,” the photo has been making its rounds on different social media sites.
Though information regarding the doctor or patient is still unclear, the message of the picture is more vivid than ever. The hospital where the picture was taken is also not mentioned, nor was the reason behind the 19-year-old patient’s death.
“The man pictured was unable to save one of his patients,” Moore wrote. “Though this is a common occurrence in our field of work, the patients we lose are typically old, sick, or some combination of the two.
The patient that died was 19 years old, and for him, it was one of those calls we get sometimes that just hits you. Within a few minutes, the doctor stepped back inside, holding his head high again,” he added.
“I have no idea what hospital this was taken at, who the doctor is, or what happened to the patient, and you can’t tell from the picture,” Moore wrote on Reddit. “If anyone could, I would not have posted it; I thought it was simply a powerful picture worth sharing.”
Truly, this picture is worth a thousand words.
