A detailed Summary of dillards delay

I think the subject of this story is about making life and death decisions right there on the spot, about staying calm in hard situations. It's also about the consequences of those decisions. Everyday you have to make certain decisions and follow through with them, I feel that it tells what type of character you have when faced with hard decisions that affect someone elses life and you still follow through.

I believe that the doctor did the right thing by helping the victim out of the truck. He wouldn't be alive right now if it wasn't for Dillard. The victim had a blocked airway and was passed out due to the consequences of to much alcohol.

Dillard wasn't quite a doctor yet, but he had been going through medical school to become one and was almost ready to graduate.

There is a knock on the door and when he answers there is a delivery man at the door with a new television. The note attached reads : Thank you for your kindness in the ride you provided me the other night. Your kindness allowed me to reach my husbands bedside before he passed away. Thank you again Mrs. Nat King Cole.

Our society is so sue-happy, it seems that people are out to make an easy buck. We have lost the innocence and the good Samaritan out look that we used to have. We shouldn't have to be concerned with whether or not to help. If we should see someone in need we should help out automatically.
