Her description of breaking the old woman's ribs during CPR reminded me of this medical article in "comic strip" form:

Extremely powerful comic strip.

My mom is a nurse at a large research hospital, and the stories I hear give me extreme respect for nurses and doctors and the decisions/conversations they have to have. It's incredible what they have to deal with physically and emotionally on a day-to-day basis.

My first wife was an ER nurse then cardiac critical care. The doctors would look for her to talk to the families of patients who had died because they said she was good at it.
