Not to equate the Military with Medicine, but EMT’s, first responders, Emergency room personnel, DR’s and Nurses all go through this stuff.
Trauma, all day long and they get home and are expected to shift gears, smile and go to Suzie’s soccer practice.
If they do not shift gears the family gets stuck, the spouse, the children become resentful.
Absolutely. I don’t know how those people do that job. The few times I have come across a wreck as the first person, and that dread feeling as you approach the vehicle...”what are you going to see?” is unfathomable to me that people could work through that all the time.
