Shadow

Every surgeon has a shadow, a dark cloud of fear and doubt. That follows even the best of us into the OR. We pretend the shadow isn’t there, hoping that if we save more lives, master harder techniques, and run faster and farther. It’ll get tired and give up the chase, but like they say you can’t outrun your shadow.

Every surgeon has a shadow, and the only way to get rid of a shadow is to turn off the lights. To stop running from the darkness and face what you fear, and head on.
