Hello!
I'm sorry, but I still can't go home this year to celebrate the New Year with you and my parents. This year, unexplained pneumonia is raging in my land of Shenzhou, and as a medical worker, I have the responsibility to fight for the life and health of the people in the clinical frontline. Last year I promised to watch the Spring Festival Gala with you, but this year I reneged on my promise again. Since I became a nurse, I have had less time with you. We are the guardians of the patient, and we must be on the front lines whenever we are.
At the first time of the outbreak of "Wuhan pneumonia", Academician Zhong Nanshan, who was over eighty years old, went against the wind and struggled in the front line of the fight against the disease, that is, on the eve of the Chinese New Year's Eve, a train full of critical care medical professionals and respiratory specialists arrived in Wuhan with hope to support local treatment. As a medical worker, even if I can't reach Wuhan to contribute to the glow of fever, I still have to do my best here, in Changsha, in my own hospital, to protect everyone.
I am not the only one struggling in my job today, nor am I the only medical worker, such as the border guards who guard the territory for us, the road dredgers who clear the road, and so on. They give up their small homes for everyone, because with their efforts, we have such a good life. Some people say that there are no quiet years in life, but someone carries the weight for you. I'm proud of my work and I'm proud of what I'm giving.
Happy New Year!

Dear Mom and Dad,
Hello! Another year of Chinese New Year's Eve, another year of default. Since work, less and less companionship is the biggest regret in life. For four years, I was always moving forward, towards a farther and brighter path. But ignore the silent pay and worry behind you. Since changsha was confirmed to have a new type of virus infection that day, you first worried on the phone every day, and then turned into understanding. You say: Although I don't know what you're going through right now, it's your own choice. Of course, we are there for you, and our only request is that you protect yourself and be safe. So even if you are very busy and tired, I want to hear your voice, and I am at ease. Instant tears.
This is the fifth Chinese New Year's Eve in Star City, the wanderer is homesick, the most appreciated in the taste of the year, the words written in the journey, and the expectation of the Spring Festival, are stranded by work. But when a friend says: You don't have to fight so hard, you can try to slow down. I said I had no choice, and I was ready when I stepped through that door five years ago. Listening to your disappointed words, I myself am very sad, but this is a choice, your greetings, very warm, but also afraid of your accompanying worry and panic, so many things do not want to tell you.
I remember when you first started working and said to me, who was determined to go to the intensive care unit: The world is so big, if you have the heart to support your own choice, then your world you decide to be good, we just have to support it. At that time, I didn't understand, but now I understand that maybe your love is that, from reluctance to wanting to protect to giving you freedom. Thank you for making me grow so well. Thank you, for your continued support, understanding and tolerance. At this moment, I am more than a hundred kilometers away, wishing you a happy new year in advance and saying new year wishes. May the years and I continue to love you, and accompany you to look at the vastness of the stars.
