“our collective war against disease is one of attrition, and suicide is an occupational hazard for us all. How could it not be, when we take an unusually conscientious and empathic group of people, blur their boundaries between life and death daily, then work them to exhaustion in a culture so binary it can admit only complete success or abject failure?
