Dad Texted 'Skip Christmas Eve - Your Brother's Fiancée Is A Doctor' - She Applied To My Hospital

Dad Texted 'Skip Christmas Eve - Your Brother's Fiancée Is A Doctor' - She Applied To My Hospital I stared at Dad's text message on my phone while sitting in my office at Pacific Regional Medical Center. The glow from my three computer monitors illuminated the words that shouldn't have hurt anymore, but somehow still did."Don't come to Christmas Eve. Marcus's fiancée is a pediatric surgeon. We're celebrating her success. It would be awkward having you there when everyone's congratulating a real doctor."A real doctor.I was the Chief Medical Officer of a 847-bed Level I Trauma Center. I oversaw 2,847 medical professionals. I'd restructured three failing hospital systems in seven years. Forbes Healthcare had named me one of their "40 Under 40 Healthcare Innovators" six months ago. The article sat framed in my assistant's office because I found it embarrassing to display in my own.But to Dad, I wasn't a real doctor. #aita #reddit #redditstories #redditstory #revengestory #revenge
