Today is the first time I did resuscitation on one of my patients. She's a 3 year old baby girl. Its the feeling of a life slipping away, no matter how much chest compressions we do, how much medicine we gave to make the heart start pumping again.
I saw her become restless from sleeping, struggling with the oxygen machine and slowly becoming unresponsive. I saw how her mother was scolding her for not sleeping and then shouting for her not to fall asleep. I saw the mum crying for a whole 4 hours but we couldn't say anything to make her feel better because she lost her child - something we have never experienced.
Qian Yun, you have been a strong girl, fighting for so long. At least, there's no more pain for you now. Rest in peace, my dear girl. (:
waiting for you right here
