That was a normal, busy morning .John, an elderly gentleman, arrived at the hospital I work at to see his doctor. John told me that he was in a hurry he had to be somewhere else at 9:15 am. I invited him to take a in the waiting area. There were many patients that morning. It would be over an hour he could see the doctor. I saw him his watch worriedly, so I decided to deal with his wound myself since I wasn’t busy at that time.
While taking care of his wound I asked John if he had appointment (约会) this morning. John told me no, but he needed to go to eat breakfast with his at Christopher’s Nursing Home.
As we talked, I asked if his wife would be if he was a little late. John replied that she could no longer know he was, and had been like that for five years. I was surprised and asked him, “Do you go there every morning, even though she doesn’t know who you are?”
He smiled and said, “She doesn’t know , but I still know who she is.”
I had to hold back tears as John left, and thought, “That’s the kind of love I want in my life.”
