Breach To Birch

It's one of those days that you feel so glad that the blog post is fresh and new and what a wonderful way to blog when the topic or subject of narrative is that of autistic man named Dr. Sean Murphy (Freddie Highmore) for the television series THE GOOD DOCTOR.

The fanatic fans of "The Good Doctor" were left hanging in suspense when the first part series of "Quarantine" was postponed before Christmas and we all waited for this part 2 last night. So, the autistic savant Dr. Murphy was acting and reacting to the bespectacled crowd in the quarantined emergency clinic. The patients were already panicking because of the on-set of virus that killed 3 patients and the head or chief surgeon was infected and the two resident physicians cannot solve everything within the confined quarantined environment. What was happening to Dr. Murphy? He was "trapped" in a noisy room full of patients in the panic mode, the room is heightened due to the enclosure of so many of them, dead infected patients, the chief surgeon is dying what else can you do? The hospital president has no other means to communicate but through the closed circuit monitor at the hospital and the emergency monitoring camera. At the same time when Dr. Melendez was also busy with the gut-wrenching transplant and the donor died of heart attack. The recipient had another chance of living, he survived. While the real struggle was at the emergency ward and another doctor came inside to help but because his son was also trapped inside the quarantine and needed help to survive. OMG! If that's a true life drama of no available brave and courageous doctors and nurses all of them would had perished inside the emergency room. Now you know that doctors and nurses are like soldiers battling to survive also.

Dr. Murphy finally came to his senses when the nurse informed Dr.  Murphy about something that struck his autistic mind. He needed a higher vocabulary to perceive that he is much needed for such operation. The other doctor knew what bothered him and he tapped the ceiling including its light fixture. lol. You know I can sense that. There are light fixtures that emits powerful beams and they are really noisy plus the flicker of such energy is somewhat chaotic for sensitive autistic Shaun. Some people are so deaf they wont probably hear such noise. Then another crucial situation arrived in he most unforgiving moment. The pregnant woman is about to deliver her baby and when Dr. Murphy sensed that the woman have a normal delivery because of the complication then Dr. Murphy was feeling kind of happy and elated because he will be the "chief surgeon" and he will get to use a real scalpel. Because he is a resident physician, a well experienced doctor was sent behind the glass door to assist Dr. Murphy in the C- Section procedure. Dr. Murphy cut open the pregnant woman's lower stomach specifically lower abdomen below the belly  (bikini style) and then somewhat hesitant for few moments and the doctor outside the  glass door and the nurse were shouting at him like crazy and that was the reason why Dr. Murphy had the confusion of some sort and finally he yelled back at  them because he cannot concentrate. He knew what he was doing. He is probably been a theoretical expert on any medical information, medical terminology, issues and medical diagnosis and prognosis, medical vocabulary, etc but the people who knew him at the hospital has no confidence in people with autism. Well it was Dr. Murphy's first to deliver a baby via C-Section. It was his first! The problem didn't end there. The baby was not breathing and the pregnant woman was bleeding profusely. Somehow he can't manage to attend to two patients who are incredibly in grave danger of dying. Who he must save first? That's one of the most incredible decision making. The supposedly father of the child was not there to talk to on such issue of who's first to ask in terms of who should live or die? The decision lies usually on the doctor attending to the patients. He knows. Dr. Murphy hurriedly asked one of the patients/visitors at the emergency lobby and the son of the doctor volunteered for he knows the resuscitate procedure (CPR) it's different for babies though. Then Dr. Murphy finally succeeded to save both lives. Terrifying?  It was one huge drama of survival at THE GOOD DOCTOR. Now you'll probably knew now how a simple pregnancy, maternity and labor can become complicated.

The TV series THE GOOD DOCTOR will soon airs the life struggles, dramatic and yet profound cases of litigation rather investigation first because of the quarantine and the unnecessary threat to human lives brought on by sudden impact of  the "quarantine procedure" whether its necessary or not or whether the hospital codes were followed correctly.

Then Dr. Glassman told Dr. Murphy that the true diagnosis for his ailment was "meningitis" not cancer. Dr. Shaun Murphy chuckled and felt relieved, "much better  than cancer,"  he said.

Is he Sean Murphy or Shaun Murphy?

OMG! I need pancakes!
