A Man Sized Bandaid for a God Shaped Hole

Phil can hardly wait for it. It's been a hard day of surgery at the rural relief hospital in South America. One case is weighing heavy on his heart. A young mom was rushed in for an emergency C-section. He hoped to at least save the baby, but despite all of his efforts, both died on his table. Tomorrow, he has a scheduled tumor extraction that doesn't look very promising. It feels like he keeps fighting and losing the same battles over and over. All he wants is to go home and forget the day. He wishes that he was able to talk about it with his wife and kids, but they rarely travel with him to the remote villages.
