Some time ago Pak Jin Hyok and his wife Jo Sol Gyong living in Ryonhwa-dong No. 1, Central District, Pyongyang, visited the Songyo District Hospital, bringing their little son with them.
They wanted to show its doctors their son, who is growing up healthily.
Thanks to the excellent health workers who had devoted themselves to the treatment of her son as sincerely as the latter’s blood relations would do, he could be born again, Jo said with emotion, recalling what had happened.
It was at the end of July that her son Yu Il was rushed to the hospital as he had been suffering from a fever of over 39°C for days.
At that time, he was living in his grandparents’ house near the hospital.
The hospital immediately held a consultative meeting to save him.
The meeting diagnosed the high fever as that caused by an abscess in a certain part of his body and an immediate operation was carried out to remove the abscess.
Ri Chol Hun, a surgeon who was in charge of Yu Il, said he was quite strained as it was the first time for him to take charge of a little patient in such a critical condition.
Furthermore, the operation was more difficult than expected.
During the operation he found under the abscess larger necrotic tissue than the swelling, and a delay might cause an unimaginable after-effect.
So there was a long intensive operation to remove the tissue.
The second consultative meeting took place to discuss the result of the operation and a newly discovered lesion.
The meeting held under the concern of everyone diagnosed the disease as a complication of necrotizing myositis and septic shock and decided on a new treatment plan.
The treatment of the child went on under the care of all medical workers of the hospital.
All surgeons and nurses of the surgical department had taken care of him all day and night in shifts and Hong Hae Ok, a paediatrician with remarkable medical skills, would delay returning home from work to voluntarily give him acupuncture and manual therapy for the recovery of his health.
Thus, Yu Il fully got well in a little over 20 days to leave the hospital.
“I realized once again the true meaning of the saying that what comes from the heart goes to the heart. The recovery of my son’s health was a miracle brought about by the medical workers’ warm humanity and great medical skills,” said Pak Jin Hyok.
