Miracle Born of Devotion

It has been said from olden times that devotion is essential for medical treatment.

This means that a doctor can achieve greater successes when he or she has a noble spirit of loving human beings.

The doctors and nurses of Hyongjesan District Hospital are examples.

Shortly ago, a woman left the hospital amid a warm send-off by its medical workers.

Earlier she got burnt over her whole body and was taken to the hospital. But thanks to the devoted efforts and sincerity of its medical workers, she was miraculously rescued from the jaws of death.

Director Kim Chol Ung earnestly said to them: We should not regard the patient merely as a treatment object but as our kith and kin and to do so is our mission and duty as engineers of human life. True to his appeal, the medical workers turned out. Ju Sin Chol, chief of the surgery department, sometimes skipped meals to study latest data in order to perform the difficult surgery successfully. Kim Se Yong, doctor in charge of the patient, spent several sleepless nights at the bedside of the patient, watching the ever-changing conditions of the patient. Thanks to their devoted efforts, the patient could be brought back to normal health in a little over 40 days.
