1. Janet didn't laugh when SG-1 returned from a mission with a fungal infestation that turned their skin grease paint white and temporarily paralyzed their vocal chords. Once it was all over and everyone was healthy, she locked herself in her office and laughed until she cried.
2. She never did figure out the cause, but she never forgot the time Colonel O'Neill came for his post-mission check convinced that the walls not only had ears, but mouths, too, and could she please get them to shut up because their yelling was giving him a headache. No one else showed any signs of whatever it was and no one on the team had noticed any symptoms in the colonel prior to the revelation in the infirmary. They'd consumed only rations on the planet and met no locals, nor had he been separated from the others at any time. Janet would have chalked it up to the colonel's warped sense of humor, but the 105 degree fever that developed that night wasn't the kind of thing he could fake.
3. Sam's 'condition' on returning from P53-93X still woke her up in a cold sweat some nights. She'd skimped on certain details in medical records before, in deference to her patients' privacy and where there was no medical need to elaborate, but that entry was a work of fiction. She had a complete account of it in her personal papers, written in a private code, just in case. She didn't expect to ever see it again, even working at the SGC. And for months after, she prayed she never would. She hadn't needed to order to staff to keep it confidential. No one wanted to remember it at all, much less talk about it. Besides, the general had that planet locked out of the computer.
4. Janet never forgot the first time Teal'c showed up with a sprained ankle. He limped awkwardly in and explained that he'd tripped during his morning run and that his ankle was bothering him. After what they went through when Teal'c took a staff blast to his back, Janet thought she might need to have a talk with his teammates. She knew it had to be difficult for him to come to her, especially for something so relatively minor. After checking the x-rays and determining it was just a severe sprain, she wrapped it, gave him the usual set of instructions and told him to take it easy for a few days. As he rose to leave, Teal'c bowed and thanked her for her efforts. He then turned and limped out with his back straight, his head held high and apparently unconcerned with the time the injury would take to heal. Janet smiled and moved on to her next patient. Teal'c was going to be just fine.
5. When Janet completed Colonel O'Neill's post-mission physical after the SAR to rescue SG-14, she thought she hid her surprise well. It wasn't the first time she'd found out about one of her patients that way. Getting called to duty unexpectedly happened, and there was no way to hide some things. Janet had never suspected the colonel. The slight challenge in his expression when he faced her told her she hadn't hidden her surprise quite as well as she thought. She didn't say anything about it, just smiled, told him everything looked fine and that he could go. His face relaxed and he thanked her and headed out. Janet grinned when she saw Daniel hovering outside the door looking worried. She would never forget their smiles as they walked out.
The roses and chocolates that showed up, anonymously, on her desk a couple of days later would never be forgotten, either.
