Daniela, a medical student, being wheeled into the emergency room after suffering a terrible accident in which she lost all 4 of her limbs, was awake and scared, asking "Am I going to be okay?" The stricken looks on the nurses' faces as they turned away without answering filled her with fear. Finally, in the elevator up to the operating room, she saw a gowned doctor with kind eyes and a beard. "Am I going to be okay?" she asked once again. He held her eyes, smiled, and said, "You are going to be just fine."
For the 1st time since the accident, she could relax. She closed her eyes.
