When it mattered most, you made the call that saved my life. That makes you a hero in my book." "I don't feel like a hero." "Heroes rarely do." Tony stood and walked to the window. "They just do what needs to be done, then struggle with whether they did enough. But Dr. Martinez, you did enough. You were enough. And now you get to prove it by helping others."
