Although it left it, it knew that it was right, it made it down, because it didn't know what's up.

Twilight Sparkle is an intern at Canterlot General. It's her first day and her first procedure didn't go so well. But medicine isn't always about treating the patients, it's about understanding what you're doing is right.

Good tension. Got me gripping the edge of the seat there.

Also, 'attending', 'epi', so American. :P

I feel for Doctor Sparkle. It's easy for juniors to end up standing in a corner in a crash just wondering what to do and feeling utterly useless. Day 1 is harsh and it only gets worse. But Dr Pulse's words ring true.

5906901 I really wanted to capture the emotion. This doesn't have to apply to a medical scenario, sometimes it's painful to do the right thing, but in the end you have to remember why you're doing it or it could consume you. Thanks for giving my story a read, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Also apologies for the American terminology, I considered using mine locally, but I changed my mind and I thought this might be more familiar for some :D

Twilight grabbed the needle and prepared to plunge the tip into the patient’s arm. Inexplicably she froze, her hoof hanging mere inches from the stallion’s leg. There was something wrong. What was it?

Perhaps it was the stallion's arm suddenly becoming a leg? :twilightsheepish:

5906973 Now that's just embarrassing! Thanks for that!

5906919 If you don't mind me asking, are you medical by any chance?

5908030 I'm just a volunteer Responder from time to time. I only know the basics :P

5908066 Ah, then double points for capturing the realism of life in the hospital. Well done, sir.

5908128 Thank you, it means a lot to me when I see someone say that.

I noticed that the AN stated that there was a next chapter, but the story is marked as complete. I hope it is still being worked on. The first chapter is quite enjoyable.

Will there be a new chapter? The tag says complete, but the author note says it will continue...

I would be glad to see this continued
