Welcome to October 2022 from Pediatric Critical Care Medicine (PCCM). It is an immense privilege and pleasure for me to present articles that our authors and reviewers have worked on-everything in the issue is worthy of your attention. Start by reading my three Editor's Choices articles (1-3) along with their accompanying editorials (4-6). Next, have a look at the two themes outlined in the section called PCCM Connections for Readers: 1) respiratory critical care topics (7-10); and 2) cardiac arrest (11)(12)(13). Then read about a completely new format for PCCM called "PCCM Narratives in Verse" (14, 15). Finally, there is all the other excellent content to peruse.
