"People don't understand, A&E works exactly as it…"

Waiting is unpleasant, waiting while in pain is excruciating. I waited last night from 20²⁰ until 2³⁰ brought by an abdominal pain that I ignored for too long and it was a terrible experience for me. But you know what? I'm happy, all my suffering has nothing to do with the young doctors and nurses that did their job working to find out what was wrong with me while all I had to do is sit. They saw I'm in pain, they gave me painkillers, when someone had a need, they helped promptly. I felt safe under the care of these people, trained professionals and their equipments. It's a process, it's slow because there are lives at stake but not many people understand that. It saddened me to see these wonderful nurses getting questioned by selfish arogant and rude individuals with: "why do I have to wait this long?"as if they should've been treated preferably and getting insulted by low quality people. I don't know how the medical staff are in their everyday life but at work they are saints among humans, doing an amazing job. Thank you.
