"Per-haps, it is that very prospect– that I have seen End, that I have seen Death, that I have seen regret and tears and betrayed hopes and languished last breaths; per-haps that has become my leverage to eschew all I have feared, to treat my company as fleeting, to wish joy on all whom I hold dearly, and to love relentlessly, that in their final moments in the realm of Life, my hands will hold theirs till their fading grasp eases, that they will take with them, to the Life beyond, thoughts of my spirit, and those will be, to them, memories of untainted happiness. And I will see a smile on their sleeping face: the reward of a Physician tending to one who has commenced their voyage onward and beyond"
