"We were so busy that night; everyone was. Yet residents on other services would just stop by to check on the boy, to ask if there was any improvement. I was so moved. It was simple humanity."

His essay was published in the Teaching and Learning Moments column in the May 2019 issue of Academic Medicine. Read his essay at academicmedicine.org.
