My mom’s a nurse. My mom was a nurse for 20 years. […] She came over on Sunday night and she told me this last particular episode [of The Pitt] that aired was triggering in a way she didn’t anticipate and she actually remembered a lot of people that passed on her table as she was watching it. And it was the first time she and I’ve ever had that conversation and I recognized “wow”. I work among doctors and nurses all day long and I’m very conscious of the toll that it takes on those practitioners. I did not even realize how close it was at my own house until Sunday.
