My family's doctor affair
Text/Yang Yanzhong

Since I married into my in-laws' family, I have been deeply impressed by my in-laws' medical ethics. The mother-in-law and father-in-law are excellent doctors, and their medical ethics and medical skills are often praised. Although my father-in-law and mother-in-law did not have great achievements in their lives, the honorary certificate in the family can be seen, and they once envied me. Although their lives are unknown, little things have touched me many times. However, whenever the in-laws talk about their work, they are plain as water, saying: "As a doctor, it is your duty to treat diseases and save people, there is nothing to be proud of, who sees the pain of patients, no one will stand idly by, let alone a doctor." ”
Life is so plain and uneventful, and the occasional little thing touches my heart.
I remember one time after work, after I got home. I made the meal and waited for my father-in-law to come home to eat, but I waited for no one to see. My mother-in-law joked: "Your father probably doesn't want to go home and chat with colleagues in class." Then he turned to my son and said, "Shuo Shuo, go to the operating room on the third floor and ask your grandfather to come home for dinner." "After my son got the order, he went upside down. Because my family lives in the hospital family hospital, and the building where the father-in-law works is only separated by a road, the son has learned to walk countless times since he learned to walk, and now he has a five-year-old son, who is familiar with the visiting class. The colleagues in the father-in-law class all know my little fart child, no matter who sees my little fart child, the first time to send a message to the child's grandfather, the son has also become a small regular in the grandfather's operating room. It wasn't long before the grandparents came back one after the other, and as soon as the son entered the house, he shouted loudly: "Grandma, Grandpa has surgery today, and he just left work." My grandpa didn't chat. "A laugh caused our whole family to laugh, and my son laughed even more cutely and innocently." Probably laughing because he had completed grandma's glorious task. Maybe Grandpa saved another life, worthy of his glory.
Another time, I made an appointment to let our whole family go on a trip. Just after packing up my things and getting ready to lock the door and go outside, several fellow villagers suddenly visited my house. When explaining the intention, the in-laws did not say a word, and then took a few compatriots to register for examination. It was already 11:30 noon. We waited at home complaining. The hard-planned travel plans were in vain, and we were all dejected. The in-laws advised that the next time we have the opportunity, we can still go, but the patient's illness cannot be delayed. The father-in-law sighed: Nowadays, the people are frightened by many doctors' examination sheets. I always feel that there are acquaintances who are solid in their hearts, and we are only doing a little bit of effort. The son who was playing on the side said, "Mom, we can still go later, today we have done a good thing." "We look at each other. The Son's realm is higher than ours. This is a long-awaited tour he has been longing for!
Under the infection of the in-laws and mother-in-law, the young son knew the function of the hospital's departments. Often, as soon as I said that my eyes were uncomfortable, my son would let me look at the five senses; when he mentioned the stomach pain, he would say that he would go to the internal medicine department; if his hand was broken, he would definitely ask me to go to the surgical bandage; and if he had a child, he said to go to my grandmother. My mother-in-law is a doctor in obstetrics and gynecology. At a young age, he became the spokesperson of the hospital!
As time passes. The son has gradually grown from a small fart who does not understand the world to a big boy. When I was in high school, whenever we talked about volunteering, he said, "I'm going to go to medical school." The father-in-law and mother-in-law said: "The doctor is too tired and too bitter, you have to suffer." He said, "No problem, I can eat the pain that my grandparents can eat." The in-laws looked at the eldest grandson and felt relieved that they were proud to be their successor.
After the end of the college entrance examination, it was time to volunteer for the examination. My son had only one option, to go to medical school. I and my subjects have persuaded me several times: "Let's think again, we can also apply for other majors: such as finance, economics are popular majors." "Who ever thought that my son would still have the same original intention, I wanted to be a doctor." As a result, my son's volunteer book was full of medical schools, and all of them were clinical medicine. Maybe it's by the in-laws and in-laws, maybe it's the providence in the darkness. The son became a glorious angel in white as he wished.
Since my son embarked on a career as a doctor, my son's dedication and benevolence have really hurt me.
Once, after dinner, our family rarely sat together and watched TV, and my son worked day shifts, night shifts, shifts, and shifts, spinning and busy. It's hard to have a moment of leisure. Just when we were immersed in this day of reunion, my son took a phone call, put down the phone and explained, there is an emergency room, I went to the operation, you can rest, don't wait for me, overtime has become his daily routine. The couple didn't wait for him, turned off the TV and went to rest. By the time my son returned, it was 11 o'clock in the evening. But before we could fall asleep, we heard the door closing again, and it seemed that my son had surgery waiting to be done. As for when my son came back, I didn't hear it again, I had already fallen asleep, although such things had also happened before, and it was no longer common. When I was eating the next day, I asked my son, so late, why did I have surgery again? The son said he went four times a night and had four surgeries. The last time I came back, it was already five o'clock in the morning, listening to my son's understated description, looking at my tired son, I burst into tears of pain.
Especially in the past two years, due to the ravages of the epidemic. The son was even more involved in the front-line work, and a large white protective suit became the son's uniform. Often it is a continuous collection of nucleic acids, fighting on the front line. It's often the moment I take off my protective suit that's also my saddest moment. Sweat flowed down, clothes were soaked, hands were soaked in sweat, white and swollen. As a mother, I was touched by my son's spirit, but my son never cried bitterly, was it the vow he had made: "If my grandparents can eat bitterly, I can also eat it." "The son inherited the will of his grandparents. This is the unchanging original intention, and it is also the inheritance of our family's doctor's love affair.
Flowers blossom and fall, the four seasons change, only good character remains unchanged for a long time. The son adhered to the medical ethics of his in-laws and mother-in-law, loved selflessly, and dedicated himself. We are proud to have such a family relationship.
