Sitting in a PPE kit, she’s fully wrapped from top to bottom. With a double mask and a face shield. It’s very hot, the AC’s have been turned off, and she’s continually working non-stop for hours.
People on her Facebook page don’t see her like this. They see her vacationing, enjoying good food, playing around with pets, celebrating birthdays of her family members. Some perhaps don’t even know that she’s a doctor.
Before entering into the medical profession, she had aspirations, like several people of her age. She wanted to get married some day. She liked to dress up. Her favourite Pani Puri was the one served at a roadside stall. She was excited when her dad gifted her an MP3 player on 16th birthday.
Being a Doctor is her profession. At a personal level, she’s not very different from you and me.
She too wants to live a good life.
She too wants to relax after a tiring day.
She has immense affection for people who matter.
She feels good every time money is credited into her account.
For others, she’s just another doctor. For me, she means the world.
I pray that whenever she gets a patient, then that person:
- Treats her with utmost respect.
- Follows every bit of her prescription.
- Behaves very well and talks nicely.
- Pays whatever money she asks for.
- Mentions the positive outcome of her treatment.
- Understands that she’ll always try her best for the patient’s betterment.
- Is a delight to deal with.
From the outside, she’s someone wearing a lab coat, when at work.
From the inside, she’s a person, who deserves to be cherished.
