@@isaidwhatisaid9740 The smiling angel is to represent her. See her picture she is smiling! And she is now God's angel! It's sad that some people portray her as a coward, that she copped out!

Let's celebrate her life, instead of people throwing stones at her! 🙏🙏
These comments make me so sad saying she was a “coward” or that she was “selfish”, mental health is a real thing and this story is very sad. You don’t have to agree with me but it’s science , and who are we to judge this woman you are not God, it is our responsibly to love and respect each other not to judge. I hope that this family finds light in these dark times and that people stop being so cruel and cold.
I agree with you there. Also, what they don't seem to realize is she may have been upset because she knew the treatment protocols were killing people. Watch this nurse describe her friend's situation in a New York hospital: ruclips.net/video/BR05LEDo5nM/видео.html The protocols are literally killing people. Maybe _that's_ what overwhelmed her.
She just couldn't deal with ppl dying out so fast around her. She was a beautiful soul trying to save everyone except herself... She was a hero doctor Rip doc

I have never witnessed a person die in front of me. I can't imagine days or weeks of experiencing that. It's not like a movie. It's real trauma and life changing to a person's mind and soul. I imagine these healthy care workers may have PTSD and future nightmares that they can't save their patients in time and reliving that horror. On top of medical workers being heroes, let's not forget mental health professionals who are going to be much needed now more than ever.
Think about the deaths they deal with with covid. You die by covid you die alone because you are too contagious so they just leave you to die alone. Crazy
Such humbling experience is a reminder that we are nothing, and therefore we shouldn't put our trust in our own power, rather, we should understand divine providence and live as God wants us to live.

My heart breaks for her entire family and also for her past patients and the new ones that she would never see... beautiful, brilliant, a doctor, a sister, a friend and daughter....she will be missed by all. So sorry for your loss and our condolences....RIP Lorna
My heart goes out to this family. My daughter has struggled with myriad mental health issues, and this global experience is heightening mental health issues, and the frontline workers have been in my prayers each and every day, imagining them sheer stress and exhaustion of being in this vulnerable position, all to help saves lives. Prayers for this family who lost a heart..may Lorna’s death not be in vain, through the continued work of the foundation.
I worked as a young nurse, in the 1980's during the HIV epidemic, it was hard, but this is worse. My friends and family who work in health care are suffering. I call, I support, I tell them, I am here for you. I had to retire because of a head injury, because a patient assaulted me, but, I am There for my fellow health care workers.
My heart goes out to Dr Breen’s family, friends and colleagues. May you Rest In Peace. Some people are just so mean posting political, offensive, unsubstantiated theories and remarks. She has dedicated her life saving people. PLEASE BE KIND.
My dad just passed away last Friday from Rehab NEGLIGENCE and due to COVID-19 none of us could ever be with him to monitor his stay in that evil place and I am dealing with intense anger over this virus and their negligence and my own HELPLESS FEELING of NOT being there for him, so I CANNOT BEGIN TO IMAGINE what this Doctor felt when she knew she COULD NOT HELP ALL THESE PEOPLE WHO WERE SICK AND DYING!!!! She more than likely felt HELPLESS and OVERWHELMED that she could NOT HEAL THEM ALL!!! This is so sad to hear this story! !!!! 😫
I am so sad to hear your story. If you ever get around to feeling like digging in more, here is this video from a nurse speaking on behalf of her friend, another nurse in a New York hospital. She mentions the prevention of contact, which is an unutterable crime against humanity. ruclips.net/video/BR05LEDo5nM/видео.html Peace be with you

Glad she said “died from” not “committed”. Illness is a real thing. I’m sure this probably wasn’t in her original life plans. Human life is so fragile we mustn’t forget. God Bless her and keep comfort for all those who are suffering loss right now. Amen. 🌹
This is absolutely heartbreaking. The front line workers deserve all the care and support that we can give them. They matter too. My thoughts and prayers are with Dr. Breen, her family, and all the healthcare workers and their families on the front lines of this horrible pandemic.
We have to do studies on covid effects on the brain. So many covid survivors have talked about the effect on covid on their mind or thoughts. Prayers go out to the family!!!!
Covid in and of itself likely effects the brain in a way that could make a person have suicidal ideations. This disease is still new and we are in the learning phase of understanding the effects.
This virus has taken so many good people & our mental health. It's going to be a long time getting back to ourselves again. Depression is real and so is this horrible virus. RIP all who were taken by Covid 19.
We are going to have lots of health care workers with PTSD due to this crisis . Lorna is the first one to hit that break point. I thank her family for speaking out . God bless her soul .
People dying in the waiting room me hear that hits real hard that’s awful I knew this was bad but man hearing the stories kills me inside as a caring human being please everyone be safe let’s help the doctors by doing our part I know I could not do there jobs especially with what’s happening now.
I used to work in the medical field. An awful day was when 7 patients died on me in one day. I would go home and be a numb zoombie. I could not believe one of the EMS workers in NY said that they had 37 Covid patients die on them in one day. Another ER doc said he had people die on him all shift long. Multiply the numbers for six weeks nonstop. These people are hurting. I pray for a respite to their pain. I am wishing the gun toting thugs would realize they are making really bad choices. If national health care was in place and decent social relief programs were in place we would not need anyone with guns demanding their rights to put everyone at risk. Leaders with integrity, where are you?
@Kasey Look at your own ignorance, Kasey. I have lived in about ten countries that have had national health care. I had excellent health coverage as a right the minute I got off the plane. I am also in contact with friends around the world who are in lockdown. They have also have protections against being thrown out on the street and/or starving. Do you really like being a slave to insurance companies? Do you really like paying $400 to have a wart removed? No one should have to survive a bout with cancer then lose their house for medical costs. Do you have to lose everything in order to see your folly?
When I heard about this story I think about her everyday since her passing and I don't even know her. I feel so sad for her family. God Bless all of them!
If you have not been on the dark side of mental illness then you can only image what they go through. Please be respectful, NO ONE has the right to say anything about others illness or struggles. It is because of people who judge and say crap that makes it very difficult for people who are struggling to share their pains and struggles.
She sounds like she was a real angel living amongst us and her heart was broken by the sadness she saw around her. I only wish we or I could have crossed paths with her and saved her. To the Breen family: I'm so sorry for your loss and we feel your pain. Thank you for your beautiful sister and her heroism. We all grieve with you.
This is what Chris Cuomo was talking about when he said the Coronavirus also take your sanity he said it took his mind made him depressed. She wasn't infected physically but she was infected mentally. May her soul find peace.
I've been trying to get short term disability leave for depression. It's so bureaucratic. How can you recover from depression when you are forced to work without being able to function? Of course you are going to crash. Health care system needs to prescribe more time off for mental health issues, not meds
I am sorry your loss, no word can able express for your family loss😢😢😢.She is hero American Woman Doctor who was dealing and fighting with invisible enemies. I will remember her in my heart to save others. I’m a nurse too😥😓.
It’s so sad. As a veteran when you try to seek for help the counselors do the opposite. I’ve seen stories where they try to blame it on your childhood. No it’s traumatic events like this that changes your life forever. Counselors from my experience don’t take it serious. I hope doctors when they reach out for mental health issues have a better experience. So sorry for your loss.
I’m so sorry. I’ve heard such frustrating stories about people trying to find good counselors through the VA. I hope you find a medical support team that actually helps you.
What a tragedy, sometimes it seems like doctors don't feel anything when they face someone eles's suffering but she proved she had a heart and sorry for her picking suicide I cannot judge her.
As a retired nurse, I am calling and supporting my friends and family who are still working on the floor, both nurses, doctors and respiratory therapists. My best friend, a nurse, my age,(I just turned 60) who is still working, her daughter who is a doctor, just went into ICU, on a ventilator. 3 days ago. My friend is devastated. I keep calling her, keep calling her daughter's family, because we have all worked front lines since the 1980's, HIV. this is worse. Partly because we are being attacked by the fat orange baby in the oval office.
Not to be cold, but thousands of people take their own lives. You never talk about them. This is sensationalism. Enough about front line, essential workers. It is their job. She knew what she was getting into. She had mental problems, this did not just come about because of long hours. She thought about this before, long before. My condolences to her family, it is tough, I know their pain. My brother took his life. Report on Michigans Unemployment fiasco that is screwing tens of thousands of Michiganders out of their unemployment due to lack of any ability to deal with the amount of people that #GretchinWhitmer put on Unemployment. These poeple cannot buy food, they cannot pay bills, they cannot pay rent. #RecallGretchinWhitmer
i went to elementary school with Lorna! she was the smartest cutest nicest girl in class! i had a huge crush on her! she was so awesome and i am so saddened by this she became a doctor but it turned out i was always a psychic medium! i hope her family knows she is at peace now as she knows all the answers as to what where and why. she will visit all of them and i am sure by now they already felt her there! only the most wonderfully good die young!
Why are they blaming this woman for not being able to do enough? Hospitals are extremely profitable why didn't they have sufficient staff? That's the obvious issue.
This is true I contracted covid 19 also at work while on duty , I feel sick and weak. Thanx for this video i watch this in isolation during this difficult time may she Rest In Peace
If only she would’ve just turned to the Holy Scriptures she would’ve met the God of ALL comfort & saw how much her life’s purpose really meant! Doctors are NOT God Almighty & DON’T control life & death the Lord Jesus Christ does! Revelation 1:18
My heart goes out to your sister! I suffer from a severe mental illness. I couldn't imagine someone being so healthy minded going from 0 to a 100 in a month. This is sad! Why aren't we doing more for our health care worker's. We need them. They are working so hard for us. I'm so, so sorry. I couldn't imagine how heart broken you are. I'm so sorry! We love you! I love you and I'm thankful everyday for you.
Life this days are so hard... but always think that you need to survive and you need to keep living for your family and loved ones... fight for them, fight for what is right 🙏🏼 never give up and pray to God! Trust God and things will be okay 🙏🏼 just believe 🙏🏼
And some states came out protesting not to stay home not wearing mask, not social distances and said not afraid to die put doctors and nurses lives in danger trying to save lives. So selfish people My condolences for this doctor family have to take her lives and stress out 😢😢. You are always American heroes and in all our hearts 💕
This is so sad 😔🙁 She was such a beautiful lady and caring soul. Thanks for all her help, caring and wanting to help everyone. May she now R.I.P. and God Bless her family 🙏❤️
I know that had to be the most difficult decision she's ever had to make. I believe she simply didn't want to suffer or be isolated from her family. Who knows? I probably would've done the same thing. Years ago, a friend of mine killed himself because he thought he had AIDS.
Sounds like she was a hard working and dedicated doctor, to put herself on the line for those that needed help is incredibly selfless... but did anyone stop to think that maybe she shouldn't have been at the hospital in the first place if she had covid19
I feel so bad for her, she's a hero she only has one body and couldnt help everybody and yet some nurse from other state claiming were murdering pt's and don't care !. My condolences to her family!!!
I wish people who dont care or understand depression would not give their cold comments on here. Your brain is a ORGAN THAT CAN GET SICK FROM VIRUS OR INFECTIONS just as your heart, lungs , kidneys, so please try to understand that people who are going through this are not doing it to hurt anyone , THEY ARE IN PAIN . No one tells someone having a heart attack or appendicitis to stop feeling sorry for yourself ,or snap out of it, or try to lay a load of guilt on them .
She was beautiful. Today is overwhelming for everyone. With all these resources we should be better prepared for disaster and to take better care of our first responders.
It is certain that wen someone is sick to an extent where one is not able to function properly it affects the mind and brain naturally ...this is from an experience as I had been sick for 6 years myself ... but in this case wat makes it more severe is she certainly must be disappointed that being a doctor she couldn’t help the patient as mch as she would like due to the lack of facilities, overflow of patients and lastly contracting the disease herself .May her soul Rest In Peace.💙
This is horrible health care workers are raising awareness of the murders that are constantly taking place at Bew York Presbyterian hospital and no one is being held responsible is this what the world has come to. What a dam shame. My heart goes out to her family.
I wish her co-workers, doctors and family who are intimately involved in medicine could have recognized the signs of her suffering and helped her more. She wasn't ready to return to work after her covid19 diagnosis, a paralyzing meltdown then at work should have gotten her immediate help in New York, and clearly it was too soon for release from UVA. If someone is intent on killing themselves they will succeed, but it seems like her persona completely changed and her need for help was hidden and overpowered by the strong person she had previously been. So extremely tragic.
Maybe she saw some of the same things this nurse's friend did: ruclips.net/video/BR05LEDo5nM/видео.html They are being prevented from effectively treating people; they are killing them.
My heart goes out, cant stop crying. I work in the field but have been Im layed off and Ive contemplated taking my own life and ots a daily struggle and I Dont want my kids to be in this place but through prayer Im glad I haven't. If nothing else Im struggling for my kids. Eviction notices, no unemployment yet, no help from all these millions given to our state
So sorry! She sacrificed herself. What a good friend she had. 30 year Nurse. We are called, but should walk away from these jobs alive and well. May she be at rest!,😢😢😢
I can see why no Dr or health care person in general would not have or take time to seek help. My question is given the fact that the virus cuts our oxygen is that maybe why so many don't seen to know or realize they are still ill or they have had a lack of oxygen severe enough to cause slight but lasting damage? I have heard of people saying they did go to a Dr when they didn't and they had done things they would never otherwise do. SO Scary.
Post traumatic stress disorder. People with people pleaser syndrome are attracted to health care profession. There should be more awareness about the ACE study, PTSD and PPS.
I feel sorry for their loss. The doctor might have really been stressed out. It's really hard to work and focus when there's illness. When I had a flu this February, I got 1 week high fever with headache , chest pain and would have suddenly have difficulty breathing. I would wake up and still see hallucinations. After a week, I got easily tired, sweat a lot and thought that I was being lazy. Arms hurt a lot. After a month, I can stand and walk without getting tired and no pain, I realized what's normal and what's fatigue/sick so stopped blaming myself for being useless. I sleep normally now and no hallucinations after waking up.
I don't think people realize just how overwhelmed healthcare workers can get. On a GOOD day, we are overworked and have a hard time getting everything completed. You add COVID to the situation, and it can easily become too much to handle. You are dealing with a surge of patients and a decrease in healthcare workers because 1) the employees get sick and become quarantined or 2) they get scared and quit working. The hours are long and everyone is doing doubles to begin with. Plus, healthcare workers already have an increased risk of suicide to begin with. On top of it all, the country has become brutally mean to the nurses and doctors. I've seen protesters treat protesting nurses like crap by calling them the "viruses" and that the nurses are the problem. All of this is just insane and can be too much. PTSD can also be a very real issue.
My husband works at the same ER as this beautiful lady and dedicated doctor worked. He is very sad about this he says she was one of the best doctors at that ER she cared deeply for her patients. He is also very overwhelmed with everything, the stories I hear when he comes home are horrible. So are mine. So I can tell you first hand this unfortunately is very real. I am a nurse myself and I can tell you this is no joke. I cannot understand who on earth would not take this seriously right now! God help us all!
I am so sorry to her family... She was too strong for to long until she couldn't anymore. I am just so grateful she did what she could when she was still here. Again I am so sorry to hear family 💔💔💕💕🌸
Something doesn’t seem right here🤔 Many nurses have had decreased hours due to few patients? Even Er Doctors have spoken regarding the decrease of patients. Sounds like a burnt out from stress...and perhaps she actually saw what was being hidden from the public. Many Doctors said patients died from other medical problems and not 🦠 however, big 💰to hospitals and insurance companies if 🦠 was on the death certificate. Sorry for the family and their loss.
Good morning from Southern California. My cousin is an ER physician as well working in the trenches. One of her colleagues knew this beautiful woman. My prayers for this family during this difficult time.

I've been trying to get short term disability leave for depression. It's so bureaucratic. How can you recover from depression when you are forced to work without being able to function? Of course you are going to crash. Health care system needs to prescribe more time off for mental health issues, not meds
I wanted to do the same
I am sorry your loss, no word can able express for your family loss😢😢😢.She is hero American Woman Doctor who was dealing and fighting with invisible enemies. I will remember her in my heart to save others. I’m a nurse too😥😓.
“Died by suicide.” Thank you for not saying “commited.” Reaching out is a lifeline for us during this craziness. RIP, Dr. Breen.
My deepest condolences
I am so sorry for their loss. It is a loss for everyone. Very sad. My condolences. 🥀
Rest In Peace Lorna Breen's ...
when someone suicide there is no peace, trust me. She suicide and they said she has coronavirus. Anybody die for anything it is a coronavirus.
AngelM so sad for her :( she has no peace. This is worst!
@Marilyn Monroe No, we are not God but we know Christ teachings. How someone can have peace doing that!??
Mental illness is no different than any other illness. It’s society that has tabooed such things. It’s a cruel world we must help one another!
I believe she was murdered not suicide
May the Almighty God rest the Good Doctor's Soul in Peace....😢😢
It’s so sad. As a veteran when you try to seek for help the counselors do the opposite. I’ve seen stories where they try to blame it on your childhood. No it’s traumatic events like this that changes your life forever. Counselors from my experience don’t take it serious. I hope doctors when they reach out for mental health issues have a better experience. So sorry for your loss.
I’m so sorry. I’ve heard such frustrating stories about people trying to find good counselors through the VA. I hope you find a medical support team that actually helps you.
What a tragedy, sometimes it seems like doctors don't feel anything when they face someone eles's suffering but she proved she had a heart and sorry for her picking suicide I cannot judge her.
Soooo sorry for your loss! I can only imagine the things she saw. Poor soul. 🙏💜❤💚💙💐💐💐💐😢
I am sure she will be remembered with love.
As a retired nurse, I am calling and supporting my friends and family who are still working on the floor, both nurses, doctors and respiratory therapists. My best friend, a nurse, my age,(I just turned 60) who is still working, her daughter who is a doctor, just went into ICU, on a ventilator. 3 days ago. My friend is devastated. I keep calling her, keep calling her daughter's family, because we have all worked front lines since the 1980's, HIV. this is worse. Partly because we are being attacked by the fat orange baby in the oval office.
She was suicidal before the virus.
Same thing I thought.
@Fate join her!
Probably stressed out at the point of no return. Sad.
Everyone needs to watch this..because were I’m from a lot of ppl aren’t tacking this pandemic serious enough..
They also are not taking it serious enough that social isolation kills.
Lord Have Mercy Please! 🙏Im praying for her whole family and everyone she touched. ❤🙌🙏
Not to be cold, but thousands of people take their own lives. You never talk about them. This is sensationalism. Enough about front line, essential workers. It is their job. She knew what she was getting into. She had mental problems, this did not just come about because of long hours. She thought about this before, long before. My condolences to her family, it is tough, I know their pain. My brother took his life. Report on Michigans Unemployment fiasco that is screwing tens of thousands of Michiganders out of their unemployment due to lack of any ability to deal with the amount of people that #GretchinWhitmer put on Unemployment. These poeple cannot buy food, they cannot pay bills, they cannot pay rent. #RecallGretchinWhitmer
Jim T I am sorry for the loss of your brother and sorry for the loss of this Doctor, as well.
The story of this Doctor hurts my heart so much. I pray for her whole family.
i went to elementary school with Lorna! she was the smartest cutest nicest girl in class! i had a huge crush on her! she was so awesome and i am so saddened by this she became a doctor but it turned out i was always a psychic medium! i hope her family knows she is at peace now as she knows all the answers as to what where and why. she will visit all of them and i am sure by now they already felt her there! only the most wonderfully good die young!
To live is to suffer. To die is relief.
Dang this quote hit hard. Just like this quote too "From the cradle to the grave".
Why are they blaming this woman for not being able to do enough? Hospitals are extremely profitable why didn't they have sufficient staff? That's the obvious issue.
This is true I contracted covid 19 also at work while on duty , I feel sick and weak. Thanx for this video i watch this in isolation during this difficult time may she Rest In Peace
Thanks for posting this poignant interview. Samantha used her sensitivity and professionalism to tell this sad story in a relatable way.
Weird that this reporter asked the same painful question twice in a row. Was she not listening? God bless this doctors family.
Thank you for sharing this. Breaks my heart. Thankful for her life and service❤️
So heartbreaking. You can see her kindness in her eyes. Prayers to her family, they lost a kindred spirit.
heartbreaking, I pray for her & surviving fam.
RIP Dr Breen 🙏✊
If only she would’ve just turned to the Holy Scriptures she would’ve met the God of ALL comfort & saw how much her life’s purpose really meant! Doctors are NOT God Almighty & DON’T control life & death the Lord Jesus Christ does! Revelation 1:18
Angie Cee how about you minding your business and making sure you’re saved according to the Holy Scriptures ✝️ before you die
Depression and then feeling guilty for being out....then coming back and feeling like you cannot do enough....
The family needs to file a lawsuit I think with working conditions..
My heart goes out to your sister! I suffer from a severe mental illness. I couldn't imagine someone being so healthy minded going from 0 to a 100 in a month. This is sad! Why aren't we doing more for our health care worker's. We need them. They are working so hard for us. I'm so, so sorry. I couldn't imagine how heart broken you are. I'm so sorry! We love you! I love you and I'm thankful everyday for you.
Life this days are so hard... but always think that you need to survive and you need to keep living for your family and loved ones... fight for them, fight for what is right 🙏🏼 never give up and pray to God! Trust God and things will be okay 🙏🏼 just believe 🙏🏼
And some states came out protesting not to stay home not wearing mask, not social distances and said not afraid to die put doctors and nurses lives in danger trying to save lives. So selfish people
My condolences for this doctor family have to take her lives and stress out 😢😢. You are always American heroes and in all our hearts 💕
Such an important interview! Let’s take care of these beautiful, brave people! The easiest way to do this.. check in and STAY HOME!
*the mental health issues affecting ALL workers and people who are losing their livelihoods
This is so sad 😔🙁 She was such a beautiful lady and caring soul. Thanks for all her help, caring and wanting to help everyone. May she now R.I.P. and God Bless her family 🙏❤️
I know that had to be the most difficult decision she's ever had to make. I believe she simply didn't want to suffer or be isolated from her family. Who knows? I probably would've done the same thing. Years ago, a friend of mine killed himself because he thought he had AIDS.
So sorry for family and friends. Very brave lady and young doctor♥️
My heart goes out for Dr Breen and her family. 😢
This was really Sad 😢 Prayers for her family 🙏
My heart goes to doctor Breen! Peace be with her soul, and may God be merciful upon her!
Sounds like she was a hard working and dedicated doctor, to put herself on the line for those that needed help is incredibly selfless... but did anyone stop to think that maybe she shouldn't have been at the hospital in the first place if she had covid19
I feel so bad for her, she's a hero she only has one body and couldnt help everybody and yet some nurse from other state claiming were murdering pt's and don't care !. My condolences to her family!!!
I wish people who dont care or understand depression would not give their cold comments on here. Your brain is a ORGAN THAT CAN GET SICK FROM VIRUS OR INFECTIONS just as your heart, lungs , kidneys, so please try to understand that people who are going through this are not doing it to hurt anyone , THEY ARE IN PAIN . No one tells someone having a heart attack or appendicitis to stop feeling sorry for yourself ,or snap out of it, or try to lay a load of guilt on them .
She was beautiful. Today is overwhelming for everyone. With all these resources we should be better prepared for disaster and to take better care of our first responders.
RIP this story touches me so much we must try are best to protect are mental health 😢❤️
It is certain that wen someone is sick to an extent where one is not able to function properly it affects the mind and brain naturally ...this is from an experience as I had been sick for 6 years myself ... but in this case wat makes it more severe is she certainly must be disappointed that being a doctor she couldn’t help the patient as mch as she would like due to the lack of facilities, overflow of patients and lastly contracting the disease herself .May her soul Rest In Peace.💙
This is horrible health care workers are raising awareness of the murders that are constantly taking place at Bew York Presbyterian hospital and no one is being held responsible is this what the world has come to. What a dam shame. My heart goes out to her family.
I wish her co-workers, doctors and family who are intimately involved in medicine could have recognized the signs of her suffering and helped her more. She wasn't ready to return to work after her covid19 diagnosis, a paralyzing meltdown then at work should have gotten her immediate help in New York, and clearly it was too soon for release from UVA. If someone is intent on killing themselves they will succeed, but it seems like her persona completely changed and her need for help was hidden and overpowered by the strong person she had previously been. So extremely tragic.
Maybe she saw some of the same things this nurse's friend did: ruclips.net/video/BR05LEDo5nM/видео.html They are being prevented from effectively treating people; they are killing them.
My heart goes out, cant stop crying. I work in the field but have been Im layed off and Ive contemplated taking my own life and ots a daily struggle and I Dont want my kids to be in this place but through prayer Im glad I haven't. If nothing else Im struggling for my kids. Eviction notices, no unemployment yet, no help from all these millions given to our state
This is absolutely terrible and unnecessary. All the good ones die.
So sorry! She sacrificed herself. What a good friend she had. 30 year Nurse. We are called, but should walk away from these jobs alive and well. May she be at rest!,😢😢😢
Poor lady she must have felt so alone. I pray for her family.
Maybe she was an empath who could not deal with seeing people dropping like flies. It takes a toll and if you do not ground yourself you will explode.
I can see why no Dr or health care person in general would not have or take time to seek help. My question is given the fact that the virus cuts our oxygen is that maybe why so many don't seen to know or realize they are still ill or they have had a lack of oxygen severe enough to cause slight but lasting damage? I have heard of people saying they did go to a Dr when they didn't and they had done things they would never otherwise do. SO Scary.
Post traumatic stress disorder. People with people pleaser syndrome are attracted to health care profession. There should be more awareness about the ACE study, PTSD and PPS.
I feel sorry for their loss. The doctor might have really been stressed out. It's really hard to work and focus when there's illness. When I had a flu this February, I got 1 week high fever with headache , chest pain and would have suddenly have difficulty breathing. I would wake up and still see hallucinations. After a week, I got easily tired, sweat a lot and thought that I was being lazy. Arms hurt a lot. After a month, I can stand and walk without getting tired and no pain, I realized what's normal and what's fatigue/sick so stopped blaming myself for being useless. I sleep normally now and no hallucinations after waking up.
My son is trying to get a job as a nurse here. We are New Yorkers and we see the devastation. So sad.
I don't think people realize just how overwhelmed healthcare workers can get. On a GOOD day, we are overworked and have a hard time getting everything completed. You add COVID to the situation, and it can easily become too much to handle. You are dealing with a surge of patients and a decrease in healthcare workers because 1) the employees get sick and become quarantined or 2) they get scared and quit working. The hours are long and everyone is doing doubles to begin with. Plus, healthcare workers already have an increased risk of suicide to begin with. On top of it all, the country has become brutally mean to the nurses and doctors. I've seen protesters treat protesting nurses like crap by calling them the "viruses" and that the nurses are the problem. All of this is just insane and can be too much. PTSD can also be a very real issue.
I feel pain for her family and friends and colleagues. But there is more behind this than covid. Please wake up people!
From Canada
Gosh, such a precious soul. My condolences to her family. May she rest in piece. She gave her ALL.
My husband works at the same ER as this beautiful lady and dedicated doctor worked. He is very sad about this he says she was one of the best doctors at that ER she cared deeply for her patients. He is also very overwhelmed with everything, the stories I hear when he comes home are horrible. So are mine. So I can tell you first hand this unfortunately is very real. I am a nurse myself and I can tell you this is no joke. I cannot understand who on earth would not take this seriously right now! God help us all!
I am so sorry to her family... She was too strong for to long until she couldn't anymore. I am just so grateful she did what she could when she was still here. Again I am so sorry to hear family 💔💔💕💕🌸
Something doesn’t seem right here🤔
Many nurses have had decreased hours due to few patients?
Even Er Doctors have spoken regarding the decrease of patients.
Sounds like a burnt out from stress...and perhaps she actually saw what was being hidden from the public.
Many Doctors said patients died from other medical problems and not 🦠 however, big 💰to hospitals and insurance companies if 🦠 was on the death certificate.
Sorry for the family and their loss.
Please turn off the comment section for this video‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️The family can see these comments and are probably very hurt‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

So many inconsiderate people commenting.
Good morning from Southern California. My cousin is an ER physician as well working in the trenches. One of her colleagues knew this beautiful woman. My prayers for this family during this difficult time.
