Re: 35 week fetal demise From: Joanne Bulley, MD (islesannie@yahoo.com) Thu Oct 27 16:29:13 2005 Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: JD Stewart,MD: "Re: 35 week fetal demise" Previous message: Joanne Bulley, MD: "Tamoxifem & Mirena" In reply to: Andrew Folley: "Re: 35 week fetal demise" Next in thread: JD Stewart,MD: "Re: 35 week fetal demise" As we have said recently, sometimes bad things happen over which we have no control. Infectious disease evaluation? Everyone involved could do everything perfectly and Bad Things Happen. For anyone having a hard time with this issue - read "When Bad Things Happen to Good People" Most of time the involved parties grieve appropriately with support and do not get PTSD from the Bad Things that Happen. Unfortunately, others get so involved the details of What Happened that they can not accept that everyone did their best but Bad Things Happen. There are Bad Things for which you expect PTSD (being in the trenches etc in a war - which is where it was first noted, rape, true emotional trauma, being in the recent natural disasters her in NH watching everything that was "yours" get ripped away by the water and elsewhere in the world etc.) ... Then there are those times when someone never gets through the grief or gets the needed emotional support and perserverates and thus creates their own PTSD from things that just happen.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
