I wanted to disappear, but before I could say anything more, the ER doors opened and a doctor rushed in. The man straightened up, assuming help was for him — but the doctor walked right past and came directly to me. “Newborn with fever?” he asked. I nodded, trembling. Without hesitation, he said, “Follow me.”
When the man protested, claiming chest pains, the doctor calmly explained that my baby’s condition was urgent and needed immediate care. He even told him not to disrespect staff or patients again.
