Life and Death and Dying and the Journey with Dr. Death
A newly qualified doctor shares her experience with medical journeys that may end in death, reminding us of the specter of Death in the '90s in the aptly name Dr. Death-- that doctor gone off the rails and killing patience in his charge.
"A doctor in America is killing his patients" is all what I remember from watching the news on Jordan TV sometime in the early 1990s. It was a horror story. The doctor's name was Dr. Kevorkian but he was called Dr. Death."
"Death has become part of my daily life since I decided to become a doctor. I remember my first patient who died, the first corpse I saw in anatomy class, the first freshly-dead body dissected in the forensic medicine course."
