Fail

RT, one of our medical officers, failed in the recent MRCP examination - we are all worried.

No, we have very little doubt she would pass next time. After all, who hasn't failure of one kind or another in their life ? I always quote the example of LSF, one of our consultant and previous division head, passed the membership on the sixth attempt. So what ? (I suspect he is secretly quite proud of it.) He moved on in his career like rocket, and turned into a well-known hawk by the time he became the examiner !

(Our previous professor of child psychiatry told me this is called Dracula syndrome.)

But we are concerned when our little girl would leave the dark room she builds for herself, , when she would stand up a cheerful doctor again, and when she would stopped looking back the long dreadful night ...

when the dawn is one minute ahead.

PS. You know what: I failed English examination twice when I was in high school. That's not a reason to stop writing - that's the one to write more !
