Opening monologue: Meredith Grey
We go into medicine because we want to save lives.
We go into medicine because we want to do good.
We go into medicine for the rush, for the high, for the ride.
But what we remember at the end of the day are the losses.
What we lay awake at night replaying is the pain we caused, or failed to cure,
the lives we ruined or failed to save.
So the experience of practicing medicine rarely resembles the goal.
The experience too often is ass-backwards and upside down.
Closing monologue: to be cont'd ..no closing monologue
