Band aids ..

You have a life, you fall in love, you make plans, you have fantasies and all of them can end in a blink of an eye. Just stitch me up, slap a band aid on it and send me home. It`s easy to suggest a solution when we don`t know much about the problem. When you don`t understand the underlined cause, the first step towards a real cure is to know exactly what`s the disease to begin with but that`s not what people want to hear. We`re suppose to forget the past and led us here. Ignore the future complications that life arise and go for the quick fix. As doctors, as friends, as human beings we all try to do the best we can. But the world is full of unexpected twists and turns. And just when you`ve gotten the lay of the land, the ground beneath you shifts and knocks you off your feet. If you`re lucky you end up with nothing more than a flesh wound, something band aid will cover. But some wounds are deeper than they first appear and require more than just a quick fix. With some wounds you`ll have to rip off the band aid, let them breathe, and give them time to heal.
