"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

Unfortunately there are a lot of female Drs with the same training and attitude. I've had at least one!

Riushed a friend into hospital who was screaming in agony. I've never seen anything like it. They told her it was atypical period pain and sent her home. Turned out to be ovarian torsion caused by a 10cm cyst. She had emergency surgery but they don't know if the tube will ever recover
