Dr. Leale intoned his diagnosis and prognosis simultaneously: "His wound is mortal; it is impossible for him to recover."I think if I was a doctor, that'd be my primary tactic. Set expectations as low as possible, and then go from there. Broken leg? Sorry, your kid's probably gonna die, but let me see what I can do. Bad cough? Well, get his affairs in order, it's curtains for this sad bastard. That way if the person doesn't die, I'm a fucking hero. And if I fuck up and accidentally kill the guy, well, then, what the fuck did I tell you in the first place?
Yes, this is why I'm better than you.
