At Kunshan Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital in Jiangsu
5-year-old Xixi (pseudonym) suddenly had 8 "temporary mothers"
Take turns to accompany and take care of his daily life
Who are they?
Why do you take care of Xixi?
Where is Xixi's parents?
Not long ago, the 5-year-old boy Xixi (pseudonym) and his mother and grandmother returned to Suzhou Kunshan from their hometown in Hubei. After that, Xixi's mother and grandmother developed mild cough symptoms one after another. After screening and diagnosis by Kunshan Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital and designated medical institutions, they were soon diagnosed with new coronary pneumonia and were sent to designated medical institutions in Suzhou for treatment.
Since Xixi’s father and grandfather were both quarantined at home in Hubei, 5-year-old Xixi was in Kunshan without relatives or reasons. Kunshan Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital quickly discussed the plan, and we must take good care of the children!
Nursing Department selected 8 head nurses from the entire hospital with children of similar age groups from the party members of the hospital. They formed a careful, professional and caring "temporary mother group" to provide Xixi with 24-hour accompanying care.
Several temporary mothers took 24-hour shifts to accompany Xixi. Feeding, washing, telling stories, and drawing, these "temporary mothers" gave Xixi a comprehensive care.
"Xixi's body temperature is normal today"
"Xixi's breakfast today was great"
"Teaching Xixi to memorize ancient poems today, he is great"
"Xixi said the toothpaste is too spicy, I bought children's toothpaste "
"I have clothes that children can wear, and I will bring it tomorrow"
"I brought some snacks and toys to Xixi"...
In the temporary mother's work group, there is a strong love between the lines. After a period of care, Xixi's face was rounded.
In order to reassure Xixi's family, the "temporary mother" specially equipped a mobile phone in the ward, and let Xixi have a video call with her family regularly every day:
"Xixi ate 1 tea egg, 1 sesame cake, some rice porridge and milk for breakfast today"
"Xixi said, come on, mom, grandma,"
"It was a bit cold yesterday, and Xixi added a quilt to Xixi in the evening, and the child slept soundly"...
In the video conversation, Xixi's mother said excitedly: "Thank you so much. You took care of Xixi so well. Her grandma and I must have the confidence to overcome the disease."
On February 12, good news came, Xixi's mother became the second cure for the new coronavirus pneumonia in Kunshan. On the morning of the same day, Xixi's mother was taken home by a special car and underwent the last 14 days of home quarantine. Xixi, who learned that her mother had recovered and was discharged from the hospital, was very happy, but was a little sad, and was reluctant to leave the eight nurses and mothers.
Thank you letter written by Xixi's mother
When asked about Xixi, you may never see several nurse mothers again after being discharged from the hospital. Do you miss them? Xixi replied: "Think, it doesn't matter. When my mother catches a cold again, my mothers and I can meet again." Tong Yanwuji's answer made the nurses and mothers present laugh, but their eyes were wet after the laughter.
Member of the Temporary Mother Group, Nurse Cai Lu: "My child is about the same age as Xixi. When I saw this child for the first time, I decided to warm him with love. I must not feel lonely after separation from his mother because of the virus."
Member of the Temporary Mother Group, Nurse Miao Caijuan: "After signing up to take care of Xixi, my daughter asked me in confusion why I wanted to be someone else's mother. I told her that Xixi needs her mother more at this moment, so let's help him together."
Wait until February 27, after Xixi's mother's medical observation was over, the mother and son could be reunited!
