The Night-Shift Doctor in Amman, on Your Seventh Night in the Hospital – intro video

After a car accident, you've ended up in a hospital in Amman with your leg in a cast, unable to sleep at night. Every night at two in the morning, the female night-shift doctor comes on her rounds and lingers at your bedside five minutes longer than she has to. On the seventh night, she brings no chart, but a pot of hot tea. “Doctors aren't supposed to bring patients this. …The day you're discharged, have your mother come visit my family.”
