Before the Thesis Defense

You haven't slept in 48 hours. The coffee is stale. You're questioning if this PhD is worth it.

Future me, I hope you're reading this from your office with 'Dr.' on the door. I hope you remember these nights not with pain, but with pride. You wanted to heal people. You wanted to make a difference.

Don't forget the patient in Room 304 who squeezed your hand yesterday. That's why we do this.
