The Healing
心灵的愈合
Anonymous/佚名
The shock of events of the past 30hours overwhelmed Jim all at once.His body felt numb,and while the world was moving along,he felt removed from it.
Jim and his wife,Connie,had just lost their beautiful four-month-old son.Pre-liminary diagnosis6:SIDS,sudden infant death syndrome.
过去三十个小时所发生的一切将吉姆彻底击垮了。他感觉浑身麻木.虽然世界依旧未变,他却觉得自己已被世界抛弃。
吉姆和他的妻子康妮刚刚失去了四个月大的儿子——可爱的约书亚。医生初步诊断为“婴儿猝死综合征”。
Thirty hours ago Jim had driven to the baby-sitter‘s home to pick up Joshua.It was a routine trip,like the one he made five days every week...until he arrived,and little Joshua could not be awakened from his nap.The next few hours were a blur.Wailing sirens,swift -moving paramedics ,critical-care doctors and reassuring nurses,holding hands and praying.A decision to life-flight Joshua to Children’s Hospital 60miles away ...but all in vain.Twelve hours later,the doctors had ex-hausted all attempts at revival.There was no brain activity.The decision was to turn off life-support.Little Joshua was gone.Yes,they wanted all of Joshua‘s usable organs to be readied for donation.That was not a difficult decision for Jim and Connie,a loving and giving couple.
三十个小时之前,吉姆驱车前往婴儿看护室去接儿子。这是吉姆除了周六周日外每天都要做的事。然而,当他到达目的地时,却发现约书亚已处于深度昏迷状态。接下来的几个小时是一片混乱:急救笛鸣响不停,急救人员、医生和护士们均投入到紧急状态中……医生们决定立即乘飞机将约书亚送到六十英里以外的儿童医院进行抢救……然而,一切都是徒劳的。十二小时后,医生用尽了办法,而约书亚的大脑依然没有任何反应。医生们只得取掉他身上所有维持生命的医疗器械,就这样,小约书亚走了。医生们希望能够得到约书亚的器官捐赠。而对于吉姆和康妮这对极具爱心的夫妇来说,这是他们义不容辞的事。
The next morning dawned.More decisions and arrangements.Telephone calls and funeral plans.At one point Jim realized he needed a haircut,but being new to the community,he didn’t have his own regular barber yet.Jim‘s brother volunteered to call his hairdresser and get Jim an appointment.The schedule was full,but after a few words of explanation,the salon owner said,“Just send him right over and we’ll take care of him.”
第二天清晨,夫妇俩有了许多新的决定和安排——他们需要打电话安排葬礼。就在这时,吉姆想去理发,但是由于他是这个社区的新成员,还没有自己的理发师。因此,他的哥哥主动打电话给自己的理发师,替吉姆预约。那位理发师的日程表原本已排满了,不过,当理发店的老板听说了吉姆的遭遇后,立即决定:“现在就让他过来吧,我们会为他安排好一切的。”
