Unfortunately, this is very true. I’ve been out longer than I was in, and I remember the losses not the wins.
Edit: the one ‘win’ I remember, we got a letter from a lady 2 years after the event. She wrote to us to thank us for getting daughter to the trauma center alive…so that the doctors could harvest her organs, and mom was able to hear her daughter’s heart beating in someone else’s chest a year later.
My guess would be mental health.
“Recoveries” likely means finding the people who didn’t survive.
