When Duty Calls

For Chinese people, festivals usually mean taking a break from work and having happy family reunions. But for Leng Wenying, festivals only mean more work.

Leng is a doctor in the emergency room. This means she often misses family meals with her loved ones. During festivals, she is even busier. Sometimes she has to work for 20 hours without any breaks, which makes her very tired and thirsty. "Festivals are a challenge because our patients often need urgent help. We need to be ready every minute," says Leng.

Because of her duty, Leng has little time to spend with her family during festivals. But she never regrets choosing to be an ER doctor. "I make the most of every minute with my family. I'm very thankful for their support," she says.

Leng is just one of millions of medical workers in China. They give up their family time to help others in need. In the heart of every patient, their hard work shines brighter than festive fireworks.

当责任召唤

对中国人来说，节日通常意味着从工作中休息和愉快的家庭团聚。但对于冷文颖来说，节日只意味着更多的工作。

冷是一名急诊室的医生。这意味着她经常错过与亲人的家庭聚餐。节日期间，她更加忙碌。有时她不得不连续工作20个小时没有任何休息，这让她非常疲惫和口渴。冷说：“节日是一个挑战，因为我们的病人通常需要紧急帮助。我们每分钟都需要随时待命。”

因为她的职责，冷在节日期间很少有时间和家人在一起。但她从不后悔选择成为一名急诊医生。她说：“我会充分利用与家人在一起的每一分钟。我非常感谢他们的支持。”

冷只是中国数百万医务工作者中的一员。他们放弃了与家人团聚的时间来帮助需要帮助的人。在每一位病人的心中，他们的辛勤工作比节日的烟花更加闪耀。
