Christmas Gifts
One of my colleagues is on-call tonight. Our floor is packed, and our PICU is as well. I hope people don’t make her get up at 3:00 AM to call a code or to monitor a child’s ventilator or pressor drips because someone decided to drink and drive. It’s always inevitably the people that drunk drivers hit who get the worst of the accident. God saves fools, but not always little children.
And even if you don’t drink, please sign your organ donor card, because tonight is the night that drunk drivers make some people’s Christmas wishes come true.
