THE HEROISM OF MAKING AMENDS

                                      Neville Raymond

Making amends is one of those life-changing things that only our species is capable of to any significant degree.  

A sergeant responsible for the death of one of his men spends a lifetime trying to live down his guilt.  

A drunk driver who kills an innocent child spends her whole life trying to make it right. 

What about doctors who give vaccinations that result in life-shattering injuries?  

We have no idea how many of them there are.  

Or how dedicated some of them are to making amends.  

It is one of the great unsung accomplishments of the medical community in this day and age.
