“Oh, my God…” the anesthesiologist whispered, looking at the surgeon. “Are you drunk?!”
A deathly silence fell over the room. The parents turned pale, the nurses looked at each other in horror. Archie continued to growl, as if he was protecting his little owner.
A few minutes later, everything became clear: the surgeon really had come to work drunk.
He was immediately suspended and stripped of his license.
The operation was rescheduled.
The boy was entrusted to another doctor, and a few days later it was successful.
Everyone said later: Archie was not just a loyal friend – he became a guardian angel.
If not for him, the outcome could have been most tragic.
