                                          Surgeon

                                          

Once upon a time, a boy was very ill. His father rushed him to the hospital where the attending doctor said that the boy needed emergency surgery for his appendicitis.

Unfortunately, the surgeon was not at the hospital at the time. The father was frantic and asked the staff to call him quickly. When the staff called the surgeon, he said that he was busy, and could not come. But after listening about the boy's condition, he agreed to come.

After one hour, the surgeon rushed into the hospital in hurry, changed his clothes and went directly to the surgery block. He found the boy's father pacing in the hall waiting for the surgeon.

On seeing him, the father yelled, "Why did you take all this time to come? Don't you know that my son's life is in danger? Don't you have any sense of responsibility?"

The surgeon smiled and said, "I am sorry, I wasn't in the hospital and I came as fast as I could after receiving the call and now, I wish you'd calm down so that I can do my work."

"Calm down! What if your son was in this room right now, would you calm down? If your own son dies while waiting for the surgeon then what would you do?" said the father angrily. The surgeon smiled again and replied, "We will do our best and lets hope for the best."

"Hah! Its just a job for him, he doesn't care about my son!" murmured the father.

The surgery took some hours after which the surgeon went out happy, "Thank goodness! your son is saved!" And without waiting for the father's reply he carried on his way running by saying, "If you have any questions, ask the nurse."

"Look at how he's rushing away! Why is he so arrogant? He couldn't wait a while so that I can ask about my son's state", commented the father after the surgeon left. The nurse answered, tears rolling down her face, "His son met with an accident yesterday. He was at another hospital when we called him for your son's surgery. And now that he saved your son's life, he left running to go back to his son's bedside."

Moral: Never judge anyone because you never know how their life is and what they're going through.

Thank You!!
