This is getting old

Ironic story actually. While I was working yesterday I had the rare event of having a well articulated conversation with one of my patients that did not consist of them trying to talk me into giving them more narcotics.
While watching the morning news we both saw a segment filmed at my hospital reporting that there has been an increased number of car break-ins at hospitals. My patient gasped and stated that:
"It's bad enough to steal from people but I think its much worse to steal from those who are helping those truly in need. That's just low." I of course agreed and went about doing my daily assessment.
Several hours later I marched my way to the same parking garage that was on the news that morning to find that my driver side window had been smashed in, my clothes, tennis racket, and roadside assistance bag had been stolen.
If you recall, LESS THAN A MONTH AGO, my car was broken into and over $500 worth of my personal possessions were stolen. Happening a second time in 28 days has really tested my character. The first time this happened was on the street and in the middle of the night. This time was different. The car was parked in a busy parking garage, during the day, and was right next to the hospital. Of course no one saw anything.
Having only liability on my car I will not be reimbursed for any of my lost possessions or the window. Sigh .. well I should be going. My mobile auto glass repair guy should be here soon.
