Why can't I upvote this more? The world needs more people like this brother. This mother. This sister. We need- NEED- now more than ever to know we are one world, one family. We have the technology and money and power to fix these problems, but we focus on the wrong things.
I am very sorry, but I can't continue reading these because I can't stop crying. They are all amazing stories, and it's a bittersweet reminder that we should all live the best life that we can, because we never know when it ends.
Agreed. I'm a hospital registrar in the emergency room. The last thing I do is place an ID bracelet on the patient, lightly grasp their hand, and reassure them. It isn't much. Sometimes, it makes a difference.
Family and chocolate cake. That's the way I want to go too. What beautiful serenity and knowing what matters.

Wow. My mind is so confused by being moved tweet after tweet. An overwhelming mixture of the happy endings and the not so happy endings. All shared by wonderful people from whom I'll try to take an inspiration in my life now on, even though I don't work in the medical field. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
i read half way could do no more - the upvotes got less and also - becouse no-one could read that far
Honestly - normally I upvote or downvote almost everything I pass when reading these lists - this time I just didn't even think of it after the first two or three because I was too overwhelmed by their content.
and the comments stopped - what can you say
True, this page#8, and I am drowned in some strong emotions which were quite unknown to me till this day. Like Pamela24 said, its a mixed feeling of being sad and joyful at same time. Being a doctor or a nurse or an EMT personal etc is such a tough job. I was once admitted to a burns unit and all patients around be were severely burned, I had a small but 3rd degree burn, for 2 days I heard the screams of agony from nearby beds and rooms, I saw family members crying at the state of their loves one. 8 years after I still hear the screams in my head, I just can't get rid of them. I have no idea how people who actually work there for whole lives manage such experiences.
I only got to page 3, and i'm " a tuff old nurse" . ha, not.
I need to stop reading these sad articles in public. I'm ugly crying again...
I just gave up being able to comment - all heartbreaking. I just hope so much that when my time comes, or in an emergency, I am in the care of someone as great as all these
I half want to go back and read to the end and the other comments - but it's too distressing
