Lucky to have a physician sister

Introduction

It is just for education and research purposes. I like to write a blog using this topic called "What if I can get along with my youngest elder sister?". I grew up with a few sisters, one of them was retired and her goal is to enjoy life and show off her wealth. I like to explore the relationship with another elder sister, she is a physician and works full-time to treat patients.

I may have retired in the year 2001

My youngest elder sister is a physician. She was very popular in treating people nicely and was a director in her 20s years career as a physician. I was just a few years younger than her.

What if I can get along with my young sister? I came out with this idea and would like to write a blog about it.

I owe a big thanks to my sister since she saved my life once when I was young in the last year of 4 years of college.

My doctor's sister told me that I had an appendix infection when I took winter break and stayed in my hometown with my mom. I did not go to see the doctor for a few days until my two sisters accompanied me to see a doctor before I took the train to go back to Shanghai. The doctor in the hospital pushed my stomach very hard to give me the diagnosis, and then I could not walk to my bed while two sisters held me on two sides.

The young sister is also a college teacher with a medical major, she was so scared and left the hospital, and then the elder one stayed with me overnight. She is a physician as well and she knew the dangers of my disease, and she was a very responsible person as always.

I refused to have surgery in the daytime, but in the middle night, my infection went out and I kept calling to help me in the middle of the night; my sister held my hand and messaged my back without painkillers, with surgery. Until the morning I was sent to the surgery room, all my stomach was infected.

I still remember that my sister held my hand all the time when I had the surgery. It took hours and I was totally numbed.

It took nearly a week to kill all the infections and I stayed in the hospital without any money. I did not have any money more than 100 RMB at that time.

I like to read my own story back in 2018. I was shy at that time, my writing was not so good but I saw the biggest courage in my life. I started to learn how to share my own story, and write down and enjoy hard work. 

I was so blessed in my early 20s with a big family, sisters, and mom back in the early 1990s. Life was so good after that surgery.
