The room had beige walls, a box of tissues on the table, and a chair positioned so the patient could see the door. I had delivered bad news in that room hundreds of times. Then one patient asked me to sit down, take a breath, and tell her the truth like a human being — not like a doctor.

How anonymity affects what a story can establish
Anonymity may be necessary for patient privacy or professional safety. It can also prevent readers from independently checking credentials, records, dates, and witnesses. Both realities should be stated plainly.
Responsible publication explains what was changed, what the editor verified, and what remains dependent on the narrator. Protecting identity and describing evidentiary limits are compatible editorial duties.
