Gratitude

[med_cat]

...if there is nothing else one learns in this profession in general, and in this specialty in particular--it is this:

One must be grateful

for every year
every week
every day
every moment
every unassisted breath

(and no, I don't always remember that, either...)

(and 'assist-control', in case you wondered, is the most common mode used on the ventilators)
