Sincere Devotion

There are many people in the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, who regard love of and devotion to others as their duty. Among them is Pak Won Chol, head of the surgical department of the Kim Hyong Jik County Hospital in Ryanggang Province.

One day in early February of Juche 109 (2020), a four-month-old baby was rushed to the hospital emergency room.

The baby was in an extremely critical condition because of respiratory and circulatory failures by the pressure of neoplasm filling abdominal cavity, and dehydration caused by vomiting.

When many people were shaking their heads, the baby’s family members grasped the hands of Pak and said: “We have come here as we believed that a miracle would happen if you doctors give our baby a helping hand.”

They reminded Pak of his parents and younger sister. Immediately, the hospital held a consultative meeting, and an operation involved over 10 doctors and nurses including Pak.

During the operation, critical moments occurred as the heartbeat of the baby had stopped several times due to the sudden fall of the abdominal pressure.

The operation ended successfully, but the baby’s condition did not improve for several days because of the prolonged dehydration and respiratory failure. The medical workers continued treatment. Thanks to their sincerity, the baby recovered its health after seven days and left the hospital in a matter of over 40 days.

At the 17th national meeting of health workers for swapping their experience of devotion to patients held in November last year, Pak said that in our society patients were like kith and kin of medical workers, and that any doctors were ready to dedicate their blood and flesh to them.
