The Emergency Room Where Everything Changed
A cycling accident at nineteen wasn't supposed to define a life. Racing down a steep Peak District hill, hitting a pothole, flying over handlebars-what followed was a hospital stay that revealed something broken beyond bones. Nurses too rushed to help. Pain poorly managed. Dignity slipping away with every ignored call button. The simple act of reaching for water became impossible. Later, at home, there was the mortifying scene of slipping repeatedly in oily bathwater while a mother tried desperately to help, both ending up soaked and frustrated. Then one night, a sister simply straightened rumpled sheets. That small gesture illuminated what had been missing all along: compassion in the smallest moments. This wasn't the path planned after studying theology at university, but sometimes the most profound callings arrive through our wounds. By 2020, after years working in A&E and preparing for global health crises in Uganda, Thailand, and Ethiopia, the emergency finally arrived-not abroad, but right here at home.
