Episode 5 Father's call 给爸爸打电话
Description
4月8日 星期六 晴
今天给爸爸打电话,爸爸说他不在老家,在另一个大城市。他说他正在去一家医院的路上,想去和那家医院谈谈,去他们的医院工作,做中医师(zhong1 yi1 shi1, TCM doctor)。
我问爸爸,你不想自己开诊所(zhen3suo3, clinic)了吗?虽然诊所很小,可多自由(zi4you2, unrestrained)呀!想开门就开门,想休息就休息。有那么多老病人,都认识几十年了。
爸爸说,疫情(yi4qing2, epidemic situation)以来,很多病,小诊所是不允许(yu3xu3, be allowed)看了,他自己也很担心被传染(chuan2ran3, be contagous)。除了病人变少了以外,还多了很多以前不需要做的事情,比如,有很多会要开,还有卫生局(wei4sheng1ju2, Public Health Bureau)经常来检查(jian3cha2, inspect)。他一个老人,已经没有办法面对很多的变化,更没有办法很快地去完成各种事情。所以现在他就想去大的医院,为医院工作,比较简单。而老病人,还是可以为他们看病的,可以用网络,视频(shi4pin2, video)看病,开药(kai1yao4, to prescribe medicine),让病人们自己去买药。但有一个问题,他要离开老家去外地工作,如果要见家人和老朋友,就只能在周末了。
真的很难,鱼和熊掌不能兼得(yu2 he2 xiong2zhang3 bu4ke3 jian1de2, lit. the fish and the bear's paw, you can't have both. which means you can't always get everything you want · )。很多时候,两个你都很想要的东西,却告诉你只能选一个,没有办法,只能选一个,因为生活还是要继续。
