“When a Native Child Needs a Doctor…”
When a Native Child Needs a Doctor
A Native father rushed into the emergency room carrying his sick son.
But a nurse stopped them and told him to take the boy somewhere else.
When a doctor arrived, the father thought someone would finally help.
Instead, the doctor argued with him and pointed toward the exit.
Everyone was watching.
Then the head of the emergency department walked in.
He took one look at the boy and immediately ordered a treatment room.
After hearing what had happened, he returned to the doctor and nurse.
“Hand me your badges. You’re done here.”
The father came looking for help for his son. He never expected the night to end like this.
Fictional dramatization.
