Angel of Victory

A title with ever changing meanings. The last one standing – in war, in battle, in a hospital ward. Buried inside a mask, anonymous: a fighter, a carer. Being asked to do the unthinkable – killing or holding the hands of the dying. Seeing horrors that cannot be erased from the mind. Being asked to be a superhero. But after the conflict, what happens? Being asked to just go back to normal? Impossible. Let the mask remind all of us that inside the layers of protection there is not a machine, but a person. A person who will need our care. Let us care for them as they cared for us. Then there will be true victory.
