Today my peaceful mind got smashed out at work, our job is already hard and overwhelming, and the last thing we would ever need is this extra load of stress.
Here is the story, today's morning one police man came to my place of work, and asked a colleague of mine to go with him, he said there is a complaint against her, and she has to go with him, the beginning was few days back, when one sick baby boy died, during a major medical critical procedure, which was done in an attempt to save his life, to make the picture clearer, I have to mention that, death is a well known complication, for this life saving emergency procedure, the problem here is that, his parent couldn't accept this fact, and they want to accuse some body for their baby's lose.
I am not going to blame the parents here, and I am not going to discuss if they have the right to sue that doctor or not, and I am not going to defend my colleague, and try to convince
you that she do her best to keep that baby alive.
I am here just to shout, to yell, to scream out: WAKE UP PEOPLE THIS IS NOT THE RIGHT WAY !!!
If every patient die, his family would make a complaint against the doctor who was on charge of him, in the nearest police department, and the police man came to arrests that doctor, we will definitely end up with empty hospitals.
There is a part of the Libyan law deal with these kind of cases, and any doctor accused, there is a respectful way to call him, and to investigate the suit with a scientific means, in the presence of consultants , who analyze the situation and with the judge, they can decide, if the suspected doctor was charged or not, I don't know why it is not applied in every case.
Our job is very critical, we deal with death on daily bases, and to be blamed for every single loss, and to be called as any criminal, (the difference is just they 
don't put a handcuffs in our hands), that will be an extra unbearable load at work atmosphere, and more than devastation to the doctor's spirit.
There should be a law, which can protect a doctor from being called to court in this unrespectful way, because he was doing his job, aiming to heal people, and save their lives and not attempting to kill them, then if they found he was accused, because of mistakes, ignorance, neglect or anything, justice will take place in the right way, and not the other way around; he is innocent till proved otherwise because that is the essence of his job.
By the way that wasn't the first time, for this to happen in my work field; and thanks for Allah it doesn't happen to me till now; but it seems that my threshold to tolerate these situations has reached its limit.
I experience very hard ending for 2007, many crucial and fateful decisions, I have to make, which will design and define my near and far future, in the presence of very stressful and squeezing work atmosphere.
