After spending last week in the hospital to have a malignant tumor removed from my left kidney I am so much more aware of the importance of empathy on the part of medical personnel. Some work in hospitals as a job or an occupation, but most do it as a calling, a profession. This series highlights the human side of such professionals such as the doctors and nurses, even the cleaning and food services staff that made me feel like a person, not a case number. This series is so uplifting it made me feel much better while actually watching it while lying in a hospital bed. I was not being "processed", but being truly treated, both medically and with respect and empathy and this series mirrors my recent experiences. I am so grateful a series such as this became available right when I needed it most.
