"The birthday boy stepped off the curb at an intersection and was immediately knocked down by a car. He fell on his side with his head in the gutter and his legs out in the road."
" The child was in the hospital with a mild concussion and suffering from shock. "
"Why doesn't he wake up, Howard? I don't understand, if he's all right."
" He's going to be all right. He'll wake up in a little while."
"No, I don't ant to call it a coma. He's just in a very deep sleep."
" His lips parted as his last breath was puffed through his throat and exhaled gently through the clenched teeth."
"The doctors called it a hidden occlusion and said it was a one-in-a-million circumstances. Maybe if it could have been detected somehow and surgery undertaken immediately, they could have saved him."
"Is there anything else I can do for the moment?" He asked them.
The first time I had read this story it made me cry because I remember the time my nephew was in the hospital. It was a terrifying feeling to know that he might die because he had breathing problems. So I felt the same anxiety as Ann and Howard did. The doctor were more detailed in their explanation to my sister than the doctor in the story. Thankful for us, my nephew did recover, and he is a healthy fourteen year old boy now. It is important how doctors communicate with their patient's love ones because they are trusting them to do everything they can to save them.

In contrast, "People
Like That..." both parents did not trust the doctors with their baby. The
mother was more concerned about her son than the father. The father was worried
about how they going to pay for the treatment. Also, both doctors did horrible
explaining the diagnose of the patient
because one doctor use medical terms that it’s hard to understand for the
patient's parents, and the other doctor use very few word . However, doctors should not always depend on
their tests or when they examine patients to determine a patient's Illness
because it would always be a correct diagnose.
