Sad day
I shadowed rounds in an inpatient oncology ward today. It was so sad. My heart absolutely goes out to all the individuals and families battling cancer. I had the unfortunate opportunity of witnessing a death today, she had fought breast cancer for 5 years and that battle ended this morning. Life is not fair, nor just.

Really sorry to hear that. I think that's going to be one of the toughest things about being a doctor and I also hope that we never become desensitized to what a tragedy it is.
Thankfully there are people like you who make it a little more fair and just.
