The first week the city iced over, Ben started keeping a tally beside his alarm clock: three, sometimes four trips before dawn, each one slower than the last. At 48, he wasn’t used to negotiating his own plumbing like a stubborn tap. He finally scheduled a visit; the diagnosis—prostatitis—felt like a word that belonged to someone older than him.
