Ever, yourself, had to look into another human being's eyes and tell them they were going to die ?
Ever done it day after day for years ?
Ever knew that you did not have all the answers but knew folks were relying on you to find a solution ... to a problem which may may NOT have any answer ?
Not being bitchy to ma' homies who are feeling frustration right now.
Giving a side which is only ONE side of the doctor patient equation I have lived for 34 years, and 8 years respectively.

WE who deal with it are in a minority and the docs who treat us in an even smaller one.
Bitch, rant, vent ... but just remember there is also a human being on the "doctor" side of things and I can assure you all .... docs do not want you or your loved ones to have bad outcomes any more than we do.
