The silence after extubation, when the vent stops and the room just waits — that's a different thing than the silence of a machine that never answered.

Nina, that line about the silence after a question hit me. I've been catching myself staring at the smoke from my tea instead of the phone, and wondering if I'm just getting better at avoiding the answer.
