Re: Lateral thinking puzzles!

[(Anonymous)]

The only thing that's ever stumped me about this one is why someone "couldn't" operate on their own son. Shouldn't that make them want to save his life even more?

Actually, that's precisely why they don't allow doctors to take family members on as patients: you can't guarantee that you'll be able to keep a cool and rational mind when your loved ones are involved. There's a risk that the doctor might go too far or be too risky, or they might be afraid of screwing up and freeze from the pressure; if they're unable to save their own child, they risk blaming themselves and compounding on their grief. It seems like a good idea in theory, but in practice, doctors need to be able to make rational, impartial decisions, and they can't be expected to do that with a loved one.

What the anon above me said. I know I read a news report a few years ago where a paramedic arrived on a scene of his wife's accident. She was in really bad shape and he had to still do his job because there wasn't enough time for another paramedic crew to arrive. He did his best with his fellow paramedics and afterwards just couldn't continue doing his job for the night or really function. It really fucked him up. Good news, she turned out fine, it's just it was really difficult for him to do his job right because the person was someone he loved.
