There's a high likelihood that Pete's got Asperger's/Autism as well. I found out I have Asperger's as a young adult, and through my diagnosis we discovered my dad actually has it too due to us sharing so many symptoms and behaviors, but if you meet my dad I don't think you'd ever guess he's got it since he's very high functioning. It really is a spectrum and we're all so different. Also, as a sidenote- hearing their family having split up due to the son's disorder was very sad and it made me wonder if I've ever made things difficult for my own parents. I really hope Lucas doesn't blame himself :(
I remember feeling like I was a bother as a Type 1 Diabetic to my parents. So many times I had to go in the hospital and my dad would make some remarks like not again or my mom was running a bath for me and I felt absolutely rotten and I heard my dad say to her, take her to the hospital where they could look after her. He loved me very much but he just wasn’t use to sharing mom so much. I know the mom said unless you have a child like this you have no idea what it’s like. I’ve known people that have worse medical problems, children, and they are dealing with a child that has to be fed like a baby and wears diapers. That woman was about 55-60 years old and her parents were hitting their 80s and they would still carry her around because she couldn’t walk and still change her diapers. I guess it comes down to whether you could handle looking after your child that has a medical condition or you just can’t. I find that nothing’s planned for you to be a parent of a child with a medical condition. What you have to do then is get as much information about the condition that your child now has and you work with that. She said that she didn’t have patience like Pete did, well to me, you learn to be patient then. If it works for the three of them, it works.
I was diagnosed ADHD and "borderline on the spectrum" at age 65, so I get it. Neither was known about when I was a kid(born in '58) and girls couldn't possibly have either until late 1990's. It explained SO much of my life! My husband frequently jokes I still don't clue into social cues lol
This was a lovely episode. Well except for Alfred's outcome, I knew when I heard about his past hospital stays, illnesses, and the look of his lungs. It couldn't help but put a strain on his heart. My deepest sympathies and prayers for his son ❤🙏 So glad the motorcycle accidents were not too terrible and the 2 men survived without much discomfort. Rest in peace Alfred 🙏 ❤
This is medicine. A second patient has died in the waiting room of my city’s flagship hospital. The first one was indigenous and a victim of racism by the triage nurse. No details on the second victim, but I wouldn’t be surprised if history has repeated itself. I have four other cases of medical misconduct in this city, three in a different hospital, with two in the emergency room of said hospital. Another hospital has exchanged its waiting room for a row of claustrophobicly curtained cubbyhole cubicles of an Urgent Care Centre. You probably get better care at a rural aid station in Uganda, run by Doctors Without Borders.
This is mislabeled and not Season 18 Episode 4. That episode has a go-kart crash and dude with a swollen finger, not even close to the events in this episode. It's actually Season 33 Episode 5.
absolutely wild that they blame their son for their marriage breaking apart and that he's fully internalised it like he has. insane behavior from the parents. also autism can have a genetic element to it, sounds like there's a possibility dad might also be on the spectrum
"You feel free when you ride a [motor]bike." Mm, if severe injury and death represent freedom. Bloody things should be banned. Individuals, their families, and the world's health services can't afford them.

My son was born with a disability. Half of my family ostersizes us because of it. People show their true colors when faced with life-altering events.
Alfred's son is such a lovely person. I wish the best for him.

I'm confused it says this is Season 18 Episode 4. But it's actually Season 33 Episode 5

And
I was looking at the breakfast they were serving and noticed the full fat milk. I love full fat British milk.

It’s strange that patients get breakfast in ED.
Lucas OMG dude is beautiful
