When duty shines
1.For Chinese people, festivals usually mean a break from work and happy family reunions. But for Leng Wenying, festivals only mean more work.
2.As a doctor in the emergency room, Leng misses many family meals with her loved ones. She is often much busier during festivals. Sometimes she has to work without any breaks for 20 hours. This makes her tired and thirsty,“Festivals are a challenge because our parients are often in a bad situation. We need to stand by every minute,”says Leng.
3.Leng’s duty means she has little time to be with her family at festivals. But she never regrets her decision to be ER doctor. “I make the most of every minute with my family. I’m very thankful for their support,”she says.
4.Leng is only one of millions of medical workers in China. They give up their family time to answer the call of duty. In the heart of every patient, their hard work shines brighter than festive fireworks.
