Spread the warmth of love everywhere

Every year, when Tet comes, people are eager to go home to celebrate Tet. We often hear many people complaining about traffic jams on the days leading up to Tet. But surely no matter how long they have to wait, people still feel excited and happy when thinking about enjoying a warm Tet with their family and loved ones.

At the end of the year, patients take advantage of medical examination to go home for Tet.

I am a doctor specializing in cancer treatment, my patients - cancer patients are struggling every day with life and yearning to go home. Sometimes they - patients or even doctors - cannot be sure whether this is their last Tet or not?

For more than 10 years of treating leukemia patients, every year, as Tet approaches, I have many concerns. Which patients should be kept in the hospital for treatment to catch up with the treatment schedule because losing a Tet holiday in exchange for many healthy Tet holidays next year? Or which patients should be sent home to celebrate Tet, so they can be with their families during what could be their last Tet holiday...

Even though there had been discussions and agreements in advance, every New Year's Eve, the patients changed their minds and "rushed" to be discharged from the hospital. The patients said, "This atmosphere, I just want to go home, doctor. Doctor, please give me a few days and then I can come back for further treatment!"

Or "Doctor, please let me go home to worship my ancestors, give lucky money to the kids, and then come back."

There are patients who are too sick to go home and have to stay in the hospital. They just hope to get better each day so they can go home because "as long as there is still the first day of the new year, there is still Tet, doctor. Please try to make me healthy enough to go home for Tet. I can go home on the 3rd or 4th day of the new year."

There are patients who accept to stay for treatment but also hold back a sigh, "I'm sick, I'll try my best this year, next year I will definitely be healthy enough to go home for Tet". How pitiful to hear that.

A complete Tet is probably the most difficult keyword for doctors and cancer patients. But no matter what, the patients are always accompanied by medical staff. During these days, affection, greetings, a handshake or a branch of apricot or peach blossom decorated in the ward can warm the patient's heart.

They - people who cannot go home to celebrate Tet - will be together, encourage each other and give each other the warmth of family love, Tet still spreads everywhere...
