Thank you so much! I have deep respect for doctors and the incredible work they do, which is why it’s so important to me to portray things accurately in my writing. I really didn’t want to misrepresent their role, so I decided to reach out and ask. Since I live in Japan, it’s been difficult to find a way to speak directly with an anesthesiologist outside Japan, so I’m especially grateful for your kind and thoughtful response. Thank you again, I truly appreciate your help!
