Some people may say: "Isn't it just an infusion, and it can be used so vainly?" "Yes, I used to think so, it is common for a cold and flu to go to the hospital for infusion with a headache and brain fever, and there is no need to be surprised. In March 2024, I was transfused for four days at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine (Qingchun Road Campus), subverting cognition and experiencing deep insight.
This is a 36-seat, 24-hour infusion room. It is often overcrowded. That day, I waited half an hour before I was called into my seat. It is this small infusion room that interprets the great love of the world at all times.

Look at the couple. The girl sits, and the boy half-squats and holds her hands affectionately. The little girl's face was sweet, as if she was not curing a disease, but showing affection and sprinkling dog food.
Look at the old couple again, the 58-year-old wife is standing next to the 91-year-old man. When the nurse gave the old man a needle, she silently took his other hand and rubbed it gently. The difference between them is dozens of years, and they may be reunited halfway, but the love shown by the old lady is not inferior to that of a married couple, and it is so deep and charming.
In many cases, the love between husband and wife, father and son, mother and child cannot be expressed in words. That morning, there was a mother and son in the empty infusion room. The mother looked tired, and the son fell asleep. Sensei asked, in the case of an emergency at night, the mother accompanied her son to see an emergency department and get an intravenous drip. In a hurry, the mother was so careful, not only brought paper and bottled water, but also brought her son's beloved little hug bear. After a while, my son woke up, and he seemed to be a middle school student, sick, like a frosted eggplant. The mother unscrewed the cap of the bottle, brought it to her son's lips, and let him take a few sips of water. Then the son blew his nose with a tissue. "Whew!" Take a left turn; "Whew!" Right; "Whew!" One more to the left; "Whew!" A little more to the right......... The mother held the garbage bag and waited patiently for her son to blow it right and left.

There was also a mother and son, sitting next to me, the mother sitting next to her son with half her buttocks, mother and son holding hands hand in hand, head to head. When asked, my son was a junior in college. Not long after, the mother and son got up and left, good guy, the son is more than one meter tall. But in the mother's heart, the eldest son is still a child who does not grow up, and needs her warm care.
In the infusion room, the elderly who need all kinds of care are the most, especially those who are pushed by wheelchairs. Most of the old man's companions are sons and daughters. There are also daughters-in-law who accompany them. From time to time, a tall, big-eyed lady came in from outside, looked first at the water, then at the old man, and then went out quietly. So intimate, I thought it was my daughter, and when I asked, it was my daughter-in-law. The last time she made an observation, it seemed as if she was pinching a point, and every second was fine. When the needle was pulled out, she gently pinched the eye of the needle and helped the old man to the door. Looking at their distant backs, I couldn't help but feel a fever in my heart.
There was a semi-paralyzed old lady, who involuntarily collapsed down while sitting, and her daughter, who had a lot of nursing skills, would hold her waist with both hands after a while, and put her two knees against the old man's knees, and exert her hands and feet together to make the old man sit more comfortably. It's a lot of work. The granddaughter on the side had a flash of inspiration, pushed the wheelchair, faced the old man, moved the old man's feet to the pedal with both hands, and sat in the wheelchair facing the old man. The warm scene of three generations of a family is really moving.
On my left, a childish scene is also warm. These are two high school girls, sitting on an infusion, just looking down and swiping their mobile phones, and the accompanying girls are standing in front of her, rubbing the ground with one foot. I suggested that the little girl go outside and find a stool in the hallway to sit for a while. The little girl seemed to be worried, and came back after a while. Still rubbing the ground with his feet, rubbing over and over, as if he was not rubbing the ground, but time, and before he knew it, he had wiped it to the last drop.
When I write about the little girl, I can't help but think of the youthful nurses and the group of angels of love in the infusion room.

It's a welcoming and young group, both men and women, old and new. The old nurse called the intern not by name, but affectionately: "Sister." "Shouting kindly, deserving to be crisp, like a sister. Everyone is light and smiling, and they speak softly, like a spring breeze.
An elderly man wanted to lie down for an infusion, but there was no recliner, so he connected the seat to the wheelchair. There is a couple who don't even have an elderly mobile phone, just transfused half a bottle of water, the old lady is unwell, need to stay in the hospital for observation, but the wife only has more than 100 yuan around her, and the nurse calls her son's phone, but no one answers. In a hurry, the elderly should be transferred to the emergency ward immediately. With life-first behaviors and concepts, vividly interpret the true meaning of love.
There is a saying, "Three points of medicine, seven points of nourishment." "The purest and true love between relatives, friends, doctors and patients is the best nourishment. Therefore, whether it is the infusion room of a large hospital such as "Zhejiang First Medicine", or the infusion room of small hospitals and small clinics such as towns, streets, and enterprises, they are all full of love! Let's praise all those who stick to love and pay for love!
