the knights in the white coat

Pain is the silent language of the soul...suffering brings the hidden shades...and agony candidly expresses the unspoken words... standing in the white washed corridors of the hospital room, all these thoughts plagued my somewhat numb brain. The altruistic doctors running around to comfort the souls reeking in pain seemed like a noble sight. How careful was I in not touching the beds, the doors...the face I made on seeing the soiled bed sheets or towels... One the other hand, the doctors clad in their white jackets were freely touching everything, shaking hands, comforting the patients without an iota of disgust or a crease on their glowing faces. They chatted among themselves like any other office colleagues would and as they busied themselves in dressing some unsightly wounds, they didn’t flinch a bit. Doesn’t it require tremendous effort to wake up every morning and tell yourself- I have to go and work at a place where no one comes out of will (maternity ward is an exception). Seeing the pain, wounds, sorrows and smiling through seems like an unachievable task however, they accomplish it everyday!!! Like any other normal being, I come back and wash my hands thrice, change into a fresh pair of clothing and thank God for the ordeal is over. However, these heavenly souls called doctors spend their whole day and might go out partying after that, without changing their attire. Little details are sometimes quite intriguing- isn’t it? To top it all is the insurmountable patience with which they handle all three interesting varieties of patients.
1. Art Movie Variety- Submerged in the swamp of utter agony, they make little hullabaloo.
2. K serial Variety- Little discomfort and hoards of noise. They play on a doctor’s nerves.
3. BBC News Variety- To the point and crisp in their medical history, they are the easiest to cure.

In the conclusion, they cure or atleast try to cure all their clients and even though they get regard...no one says ‘wonderful meeting you, hope to see you again.’ Sad yet ironical.
