When the young Chinese man asked me: Is this the first time you remove stitches
with a blade???
I nodded.
he turned to me: 'Don't be scared. Don't worry. Just do it, I will be fine.'in a shaky voice
and obvious tremors in his limbs.

When I am allowed to observe the woman who was in labour, pounding her fists
into the bed and groaned while trying to take deep breaths:
she turned to me and mused in a sweaty and exhaustive tone:
'TRUST ME. It doesn't look as BAD as you see.'
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
When I couldn't seem to draw any blood from his vein,
he voluntarily pointed at a bigger juicier one and offered: LOOK, let's try this one.
You will definitely get this. If you can't, I still have plenty on my other arms.'
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
When a pair of heroic parents grabbed the uncooperative kid's legs and hands
who was struggling like mad and urged: QUICK , doc. DO (inject) it now. He can't
move now.'
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
When the helpful mother tried to show her son to take a deep breath when I was
listening to his chest and ended up hyperventilating and getting dizzy +
nauseous.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Almost all of them blessed me GOOD LUCK before leaving the room.
I guess I will be lucky after all the blessings I received.
