Something I made while processing Samira’s departure... Our girl who tries to do everything right but is made to feel like she’s not doing enough.
Because the system is fucked, her mentor would rather demean her than guide her, and that damn hospital would rather them quickly discharge patients than open up beds or hire more staff
Anyway, in my world, she goes to an ER that fully sees her strengths, a doctor who digs deep to arrive at the correct treatment. She makes mistakes but is guided rather than demeaned. Her research on racial disparities in emergency medicine gets going.
Samira eventually allows herself to have a personal life, lean on help, make friends…She says she’s fine. She actually means it 💗
