Congratulations to the docs and to all other people involved in taking up this good cause.... And thanks to rediff for keeping us updated on the progress of Lakshmi.
It hardly matters with this message with one or two doctors doing good work when a lot of them donot treat patients properly in govt hospitals. If anil and mukesh are billionairs does it mean whole india is rich. You need more changes in total of society than this type of one or two junk cases
People in this forum giving congratulations to treating doctors of Lakhsmi--- just because a media hype for a rare case. No one ever tried to congratulate the doctors who work day and night , in places devoid of basic facilities to give the healing touch. No one ever tried to hail the efforts of a doctor for every patient reviving after a successful CPCR. No one ever tried to help the doctors working more than twice stipulated hours for a amount of pay less than any other respectable professions. When doctors come out openly.......to save their quality of service by opposing reservation, they are wrong; to save themselves when manhandled by emotionally labile relatives of dying patients, they are wrong. If you want doctors to treat diseases and save lives, save doctors...who spend their youth in books and hospitals to become a good doctor. Give them the respect instead of exploding out own anger and frustration when someone of your near and dear dies because of the efforts he has given. And lastly......... if possible this Ramadoss should be thrown into bay of bengal to save doctors.

Sir, firstly how do you know that "no one ever tried to congratulate the doctors who work day and night"? Do you have some concrete proof that 1 billion indians have NOT done this?
And not just doctors but people in every other profession work hard and spend their youth in that pursuit. They save lives in different ways and add value to the lives of people in their own ways.

yes, the only difference is if techie does a fault it may result in a bug while if a doc does a mistake it may cost a life

You may mean you have done this.... i.e. congratulating a doc for his efforts. Just think again, was that patient one of your relatives or it was just any third person you never knew??? If it was your relative, by congratulating you have expressed your gratitude only. And if that patient was someone else, then I salute your spirit. I have been in this profession for more than 10 years now, working in govt hospitals only where I have to deal with limited facility and volumes of patients - not pvt hospitals where you have all gazettes and less patients. I donot derogate any other profession anyway- its all you know how responsibly all other systems work. I specify...this profession needs to be salvaged now-- after 10 years you will not find a good doctor in a govt hospital to treat you at all! 40% of doctor posts are vacant in govt hospitals as per health minister. And the career is no more lucrative for students.... good students are seldom coming to this field because of long study career which is ever increasing with more years of rural posting before specialization, less reward in terms of pay scale, more struggle due to decrease in number of seats by quota system... and many more. You and your next generation will suffer..... think brother ....
Congratulation shouls really go to the person who brought the issue to medical community with the help of media. Then it goes to medical team. Remember ,every disease is an attempt of death to snatch our life. We human being push it back with the help of science and technology. European doctors say " we will push back death till 200 years and are very close to create a human being which will be disease free" Best wishes
