abuse

It's really sad finding out that the possible cause behind a patient's admission to the hospital with a subdural hematoma is due to abuse of someome close to that individual. *sigh* but I know as a nurse you see cases like this on weekly or even daily basis. I remember my teacher telling us a story of having to treat a little girl who had severe burns from hott water, a result from parental abuse. And then you can't help but wonder how does God let this happen? Karma seriously isn't the answer when working with the patients who aren't only healing but coming to terms with their abuse.
