Every year, quite a few medical students give up, not because they can't study well or for other reasons, but solely because they collapse mentally from watching patients suffer while being unable to help.
A doctor's heart needs to be a bit cold because the person who often accompanies the patient to their last journey is also the doctor. Doctors are destined to watch as patients leave this world.
"Doctor Jiang, what's the patient's condition now?" Xie Wanying asked Teacher Jiang.
Doctor Jiang patted her shoulder, reminding her there were others present, then led her to the side to quietly inform her of the situation: "The Director has arrived."
The patient introduced by Section Chief Yang was on the brink of death just after being transferred here. Director Zheng quickly came back to the hospital upon hearing about this situation.
With the Director here, at least the attending physicians on duty tonight had to come, hence the crowd of doctors present.
