In the midst of "medical miracle"

There was a serious accident and a boy around 17 years old came into the A&E, badly injured and with serious head injuries.

He was in emergency surgery for over ten hours.  We flew in a neurologist to help.  Around 8 surgeons and over a dozen nurses were involved in stabilising him.

His parents were interviewed on local TV and they thanked "god" for their son's survival.  No mention of the highly trained doctors and nurses who helped him.

My turn, school also, med-surg floor. Lady told the surgeon in rounds after seeing the patient " I thank the lord almighty that he guided you in/when (can't remember which) saving my husband". The surgeon did a 180 and walked. The flock started snickering and followed. I don't remember the surgery, something GI and non life threatening.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
