THE MERCYFUL DOCTOR
#WritcoStoryPrompt37
The severely malnourished child was on the verge of death. I quickly set up an IV to give him much needed nutrition and other supplements.
Hours later when he was stable I turned in anger upon the illiterate parents. " Why are you starving this child? He needs proper food! "
Tears dropped down the broken, skeletal man who stood before me with folded hands. "Look around you, Doctor Sahib, the land is dead. We have no food." there are no jobs here and above all we can not farm because the land is dead. It is not that we want to starve our child it is just that we have no means of providing for our child doctor other wise we always try our best to feed our child, but of now our hands are tired there is littel or nothig we can do.
that is so sad to hear but this child need to be eating well balanced food in order for him to survive, becuse he is malnourished. Doctor please help us in any way you can please we don't want to loss our child he is the only child we have, and if you won't help us doctor we will surely loss him.
