Canon Story: The Adventure of the Resident Patient
Title: A Telling Difference

Rating: G

As I listened to Dr Trevelyan, I was struck by the thought that in a way Watson was my resident patient. Did I not contrive to care for his wounds of body and spirit by providing distraction, amusement, a modicum of excitement, and, when needed, ample rest? There was one telling difference, however. Nothing whatsoever was weak about Watson’s heart.

Oh, how interesting! I was thinking of Holmes as Watson's patient, just based on the number of times I imagine Watson having to fix him up, but I really like this interpretation as well!
