Unfiltered Story #292146

I work at a hospital. One day I received an email through our patient/staff email server. Note: anyone with a patient/staff account can send a message to anyone else in the server.

Sender:
Please do not bring up my recent abortion to my mother during our visit. I haven’t decided how to talk to her.

My reply:
I am very sorry but you must have the wrong address. I hope you get in contact with your doctor before your visit.

I specialize in pediatric cancer. I could not comprehend sending such a message.
