Giving gifts of encouragement and gratitude to a teacher undergoing cancer treatment

On November 19, K Hospital coordinated with Bright Tomorrow Fund to visit, encourage, and send gifts of gratitude to 80 patients who are teachers and staff who have worked and are working in the education sector at 3 hospital facilities in the atmosphere of Vietnam Teachers' Day (November 20).

This activity shows the respect and gratitude of doctors and medical staff at K Hospital to those who have devoted their wholeheartedly to the cause of "cultivating people", bringing knowledge to many generations of students.

At the hospital's Hall, the Board of Directors of K Hospital and leaders of departments and offices met, visited, encouraged and gave gifts and cash support to 80 patients.

At Quan Su and Tam Hiep facilities, representatives of hospital leaders and units also presented gifts to each bed where teachers were being treated.

Kind greetings and small gifts, but containing sincere feelings, help patients ease the pain of illness, feel warmer when recognized and cared for. This is also a great source of spiritual encouragement, helping them to have more confidence in the treatment process.

“Today, my fellow patients and I received more words of encouragement and sharing from everyone. We are also teachers who have worked for many years in different schools and localities, but everyone is very touched by the attention of the hospital leaders. This is not only a material gift but also shows the sharing, understanding, and respect for those who work in the teaching profession like us, but more importantly, the companionship when we are in the most difficult period. I am very touched, very grateful and will always remember this sharing. My fellow patients and I will try to get treatment to soon return to the school we have been attached to for many years. Every day and every hour, I still cherish that belief during the past 7 months of treatment,” Ms. Tuyet confided.

Professor Le Van Quang - Director of K Hospital said that in recent years, K Hospital has always focused on paying gratitude with practical actions. This is also an opportunity to educate the younger generation, cadres, doctors, and medical staff of K Hospital about the tradition of the nation, and is a motivation for generations of teachers in the hospital to cultivate, practice, and study continuously to always be a shining example for young doctors to follow./.
