The quiet before the propofol
Had a patient today who asked me to hold her hand while she counted backward from ten. She made it to seven before the slow drift. That's the part of the day that stays with me, not the numbers or the charts. Just the trust in that small space.

Reminds me of a forklift I had that would hum down for three seconds after the key turned. The operator knew to wait. That kind of trust sits different.
