I confront emotional detachment after repeated deaths and rediscover why compassion must remain part of treating every patient.
Unravelling
I lose myself to medicine, burnout and hundred-hour weeks before rebuilding a life beyond hospital walls.
Trial By Fire
I survive my first on-call shift, facing bloods, cannulas, death and uncertainty while learning when to act and ask for help.
Head Start
I find my footing as an FY1, balancing ward rounds, pre-op chaos and theatre while growing into the doctor I want to be.
