The meaning of a vacation is to relax yourself and not think about the work content for a short period of time, so that you can concentrate on your future work. Those who need a vacation are basically those who have high work pressure and have a relatively good income. The work pressure is not so high
Those who work may not have this need, and those with low-paying jobs may find it more difficult to afford the expenses of a vacation.
Analyzed from this perspective, Chinese doctors basically belong to the most miserable category of "people who really need a vacation but have no time or money to afford it." When they are so busy with work that even sleeping well is a luxury, the concept of vacation will change.
It’s very unfamiliar. As for traveling like our colleagues abroad, it’s even more unrealistic. When the cost of a round-trip air ticket is basically equal to one month’s salary, how can doctors have the spare time to travel? What’s more, they have to be on duty during major holidays, even if
There is usually a serious shortage of manpower. If one doctor is missing, a large number of patients will have to wait for several hours. Generally speaking, vacations do not exist for Chinese doctors.
Sun Lien's situation is somewhat special. He is the luckiest among many medical workers. He is not busy at work and has not been admitted to the hospital for a long time. The lack of independent prescription rights means that he can only perform treatment with Zhou Jun's permission.
When Zhou Jun had to go to a meeting, he had to stop working at the emergency clinic. Takeda's subsidy relieved him of financial pressure, so he could accompany Hu Jia to stay by the lake for a few days to relax.
"Come on, come on, don't be stunned." It was already late at night when Sun Li'en drove to the small villa. But Mr. Xu seemed to be in high spirits. When he saw Sun Li'en coming, Comrade Xu happily took out his
He also held a fishing tackle bag and two military coats in his hand. He grabbed Sun Lien's arm and walked to the lake. "Let the lesbians have fun, and let us go fishing!"
Sun Lien took over the military coat and asked worriedly, "Are you going now?" It's one o'clock in the morning, which is the coldest time. You don't want to stay in a nice villa, but you have to go to the lake to catch the cold wind and go fishing?
"This is the best time for fishing." Old Xu said with a smile, "Light up the stove next to the pier, heat up a pot of rice wine, and grill two small fish. It's beautiful!"
As long as you like it... People have to bow their heads under the eaves. The house is rented by the goddaughter. The old man has spoken, can Sun Lien say no? Compared with grilling small fish, Sun Lien actually wants to make a greasy sheep.
After taking a bite of the preserved egg and lean meat porridge that Hu Jia gave him, he had already stuffed it into his stomach. But after being cold for a while, his stomach was already empty.
"By the way, Rachel!" Lao Xu was walking out when he suddenly remembered something and shouted towards the house behind him, "Bring out some of the remaining skewers from the evening. I think Xiao Sun may still be hungry.
.”
"Okay!" Rachel's head poked out from the door, her long hair tied into a bun. She waved her hand towards Sun Lien, "You go first, I will send the things over in a minute!"
Lao Xu continued to smile, smiling very proudly. He lowered his voice and said to Sun Lien, "Look at me! Where can I find such a diligent girl?" I don't know if the two girls are referring to the same person.
Anyway, fishing is something that happens once and becomes familiar with again. You may not like it at first, but as you get better at it, the feeling of fighting wits and courage with fish is quite enjoyable.
Eating barbecue and drinking hot wine, Sun Lien and Comrade Lao Xu sat on the shore and chatted.
"You are doctors, are you busy at work?" Lao Xu looked at the bait that had been stolen by the fish for the third time, hung up a new bait and threw it into the water. He leaned back a little and stretched his stiff muscles.
Legs, "Rachel said they were living a good life in the United States, but she didn't tell me what was going on with Yourong in China."
"It would be a lie to say you are not busy when you are a doctor." Sun Lien sighed and talked about his work experience with Lao Xu. In the first week after getting the status column, he treated more than a dozen patients, and
The people he met and the things he saw. Zhou Xiufang, Lin Lan, Guo Jinshui, Zheng Xiaoyu, their names one by one, and their stories one by one. As he talked, Sun Lien suddenly stopped talking.
"These names and these things are all impressive stories even to us." Lao Xu put away his fishing rod and poured a full glass of rice wine for himself and Sun Li'en. "But, for you,
I'm afraid it's more difficult, right? You are facing the patients directly, and all you see are living people..." He looked at the silent Sun Lien and sighed. "Are you tired?"
"Tired." Sun Lien nodded, took the rice wine cup and drank it in one gulp, then let out a deep breath and went out. "I can have four days of vacation, and I had a chance to go to Sanya for a meeting before. Half of it in more than a month
I don’t have to be on duty in the hospital for a month, but I still feel tired. I feel so tired that my bones are about to break.” He raised his head, looked at the dark sky and sighed, “I really don’t know what other doctors rely on to support themselves.
.”
"Yourong told us before that it's a great sense of accomplishment to be able to save a patient." Old Man Xu took out a crumpled cigarette from his pocket, turned his head and looked behind him to make sure that his tigress wouldn't come out.
After grabbing his ears, he put the cigarette in his mouth, lit it and took a puff, "Listening to what you just said, didn't you save a lot of patients?"
"I saved him." Sun Lien's mood became even lower. "I have been a doctor for so long, and the biggest feeling I have is that we really...can't cure a few people."
Zhou Xiufang's illness could not be cured by Sun Lien and others. Zheng Xiaoyu died in the emergency room. Yang Jianqiang lost part of his memory. It is still hard to say whether he can save his life. Even the daughter of the second son Feng Ming
My friend Qin Ya, it is not yet known whether the symptoms of cerebral ischemia can be relieved once and for all after undergoing surgery.
"Those that can be cured are basically minor illnesses, or what we often call 'self-limiting' diseases." Sun Lien rubbed his face, "It's the kind of thing that can be cured even if you don't care about it.
sick."
"According to you, the profession of doctor has no value at all." Old Man Xu took off the hat on his head and scratched it, and a burst of heat rose from his head. "You think that a profession that has existed for thousands of years has no value?
Then there must be some problem with your cognition."
This is also a very simple truth. Of course Sun Lien knew that he might be getting into a corner, but he just couldn't figure out how this spiral trapped him.
"Although it's a bit unlucky for a person of my age to say something like this." Old Man Xu took another drag on his cigarette like a thief, "But, we are always going to die. People are bound to die."
Sun Lien nodded silently, waiting for Lao Xu to continue.
"In my opinion, human life is like a big river that never ceases to flow." The professor of the Department of Literature was indeed very literate when he spoke, "This big river starts from the source and flows downstream, and in the process of the river flowing,
, there are always some canyons and turbulent places. Sometimes we will encounter insurmountable difficulties and obstacles, and even injuries. The role of the doctor is to make the flow of the river smoother. Before the river breaks through the dam, the dredge has been
A dammed river section."
"But the most important thing is that after dredging the river, we will still run towards the source of life, which is the ocean." After finishing his cigarette, Professor Xu carefully pressed the cigarette butt on the ground and extinguished it and said, "But the doctor can only let the river
When you return to the river, you do not have the ability to reverse the flow of the river, and sometimes you cannot dredge the river before the embankments are washed away. This is a normal thing."
"But what if there are no doctors? What if there is no medicine? Then many people will not even have a chance to be treated." Lao Xu sighed and said leisurely, "If one day I lie in the hospital, I will also hope that someone will
Come try to save my life. It would be great if you survive, but if the rescue does not bear fruit, the dead will not have any other ideas. If they can, they will just thank you for your efforts." He stood up and said,
He poured another two glasses of rice wine and said, "When you are most helpless, when you are most vulnerable, someone is willing to save you regardless of fatigue. This is more than just a doctor? This should be a hero."
"Even superheroes can't save everyone, not to mention they are still virtual characters." Lao Xu looked at the dark sky while holding rice wine, "Of course it is important for patients to have good results, but if the results are uncontrollable
, having this process is gratifying enough.”
"Young man, muster up your energy." Professor Xu raised his hand and drank the glass of wine. "Singing to the wine, what is life like? It's like the morning dew, the past days are more bitter. There is no time for you to hesitate and be content with yourself.
Sorry! You have to move forward, move forward, move forward!"
"I thought you had a lot of fun fishing." Lying on the bed, Sun Lien and Hu Jia chatted quietly. The walls of this kind of holiday villa are quite thin, and the sound insulation is not particularly good. Therefore, the two of them have to be deliberate when talking.
Lower your voice so as not to affect other people's sleep. "What is this? Uncle Xu gave you an ideological education class?"
Sun Lien smiled and nodded, regardless of whether Hu Jia could see it in the dark or not. "To be honest, I think this class is worth taking. For example, the morning dew will make the day miserable. Time is tight and there are many tasks. Don't give it to yourself.
If you take the time to feel sorry for yourself, you won’t be stumbling over such boring thoughts.”
"Thank you for your hard work, my Director Sun." Hu Jia smiled and turned over, resting his head on Sun Lien's arm and asked, "How was the fishing result in the end? How many fish were caught?"
"Well... not even one." Sun Lien told the truth, "I have been listening to Uncle Xu's teachings. Time is tight, how can I take care of fishing?"
"You also know that time is tight?" Hu Jia came over and whispered in Sun Lien's ear, "Then... can I temporarily change my name to Kuduo? Probably, just for half an hour."
