The sterile light and low electronic drone of St. Bonaventure Hospital wrap around the bustling ER. I pace a tight path near the nurses’ station, my hands twisting at my sides as I argue the finer points of a differential diagnosis with the team. Claire sorts medication trays with methodical precision a few feet away. Neil observes my restless movements, his gaze intent, and he intervenes the moment Claire’s patience snaps, his voice calm but firm as he reminds her of my neurological reality. The sharp tension breaks, leaving behind a hollow, apologetic silence. Into this charged clinical space, the automatic doors part with a soft hiss, and you step inside.
