小猪佩奇是儿科急诊室的无名英雄

小白老师说：这位儿科医生告诉我们，小猪佩奇和他一起参与了一例重症哮喘患儿的救治，是默默无闻的幕后英雄。作为医生，您在手术或急诊的时候会允许病人看手机吗？会主动给患者看剧缓解紧张情绪吗？在文末留言分享一下吧！

I was on a particularly busy shift. It had been a hard day. This little boy about four or five years old was brought in by ambulance with his mum, because he's had quite a serious asthma attack（哮喘发作）. That day, and he is known to be asthmatic, but this was a particularly bad one.

当时我正在忙碌地轮班，那天的工作强度很大。这个四五岁的小男孩因为哮喘严重发作，在他妈妈的护送下坐救护车来医院看急诊。虽然家人都知道他有哮喘，但是那天的发作特别厉害。

It's an anxiety driven situation especially when you've got a really poorly child, and I remember him sitting there being really really upset.

接诊病情严重的患儿总是让人焦虑，我还记得当时那个小孩子在那里坐着，非常非常难受的样子。

You know, everybody's doing things around him, they're sticking wires on his chest, and they sticking masks on his face.

你懂的，当时我们所有医护都在围着他救治，有人把导线贴到他的胸口，还有人把面罩固定到他脸上。

And I remember just leaning down and introducing myself say: You know why I'm here, and I'm here to help you.

我还记得我弯下腰去向他介绍我自己：你知道我为什么在这里的吧，我是来帮助你的喔！

And I got my phone out and I put a video of Peppa Pig on.

然后我掏出了自己的手机，放《小猪佩奇》给他看。

I don't think Peppa Pig realizes how useful it is sometimes particularly in the health care setting, but obviously whilst he's being distracted, we were able to get on with all the things we need to do, were able to get nebulizers and things on him.

我不认为《小猪佩奇》对治疗有什么用，但是一个很明显的好处是这个小男孩的注意力被分散了。我们可以继续我们的救治，可以顺利地把喷雾器什么的安到他身上。

Someone was trying to put a line in which is particularly unpleasant when you're such a little child

假如你是这个小男孩，要有人上纲上线这个不许那个不许的，你一定高兴不起来。

But luckily, he responded to all that treatment. He had to throw a lot at him, but fortunately he got better and better, his face brightened up, his eyes brightened up, him crack a smile. Simple thing like that.

但是幸运的是，所有的治疗都得到了回应。康复并不容易，但是他一点一点地好起来了。他的小脸红润了，眼睛也变亮了，他咧开嘴笑了起来。一切就是这么简单！

And I remembered we were getting ready to send him up to the wards, and he hopped off the bed, and came up to me, and said thank you, and gave me a really big hug.

我还记得准备送他去病房的时候，他跳下床，走到我身边，对我说 “谢谢你”，然后给了我一个大大的拥抱。

And at that very moment all of the stresses and strains of that day, all of that stuff that I was carrying that had been getting me down just evaporated.

那一刻，我觉得所有的工作压力和紧张情绪，以及所有可能把我压垮的重担都烟消云散了。

And that tiny little gesture that from that tiny little person was the most powerful thing.

小男孩给我的这个拥抱，是最有力量的事情！

And I needed it, I needed him just as much as he needed me.

我需要这个拥抱，正如这个小孩子需要我一样。
