But any remaining panic subsided as I walked into the courtroom and looked around at a sea of friendly faces: our individual women clients who had shared their deeply personal stories, the geneticists who had taken huge chunks of time out of their busy careers to dedicate themselves to this fight and representatives from a diverse array of medical, patient advocacy, environmental and religious organizations, who had submitted friend of the court briefs in the case.
但是当我走进法庭时， 所有的慌张都不见了。 我看到周围都是熟悉的面孔： 我们的一位位女性客户， 她们毫无保留地分享了 自己的亲身经历； 有在百忙之中抽出大量时间 投身于这场斗争的遗传学家， 还有来自许多不同领域的代表： 医疗、患者救助、 环保和宗教组织， 以及本案中向法院递交摘要的朋友。
