Love Notes
From the time when each of my children started school, I packed their lunches. And in each lunch that I packed for them, I put a note, often written on a napkin. The note might be a thank-you for a special moment, a reminder of something we were happily looking forward to, or a bit of encouragement for a coming test or sporting event.In early grade school they loved their notes — they wrote something on them after school as a reply, and they even put notes in my lunches! But as the kids grew older they became self conscious, and my older son, Marc, after being laughed at by his classmate for the notes, told me that he no longer needed my daily missives but I continued the tradition until the day when he graduated.
Marc is now a successful doctor in Washington DC. Last November, Marc called me and asked me if he could stay with us for two months. It was six years since he began to work. This year his younger sister was leaving for college, his younger brother, Sam, will be a senior in high school. Sam, too, told me that he is too old for notes. But like his elder brother and sister, he will receive those notes till the day he graduates.
I was especially excited and pleased to have Marc coming back home.
During those two months, I was still making lunch every day for his younger brother. Of course, I packed one for Marc, too, then he could have his lunch on the way back to his home. Imagine my surprise when I got a phone call from my 30-year-old son, Marc, complaining his lunch from his home. "Did I do something wrong? Aren't I still your kid? Don’t you love me any more, Mom?" were just a few of the questions he threw at me as I laughingly asked him what was wrong.
“My note, Mom,” he answered.“ Where' s my note?”

National Doctors’ Day is a holiday in the United States. It is a holiday that honors doctors for the work they do for their1., the communities they work in and for society as a whole. It is their hard work that keeps all of us healthy and this day thanks them for doing that for us2.our loved ones. The holiday started in 1933 in Winder, Georgia, and since then it’s been honored every year on March 30, which was the first anniversary of a doctor using ether anesthesia(乙醚麻醉) by Dr. Crawford W. Long.
We give greeting cards to doctors, both alive and3.. The red carnation is also still popularly used to say “thank you” to doctors for their work in medicine.
Now when you need to see a doctor, surely you will want to see a good one. But there is one important thing you may never have thought about: Has your doctor rested enough?
Doctors in our country often have to work 34 hours or even4. (long) without sleep. Most of them work 104 hours a week, and some even 150. (There are only 168 hours a5.!) One report said that a doctor who works such long hours cannot think more6. (clear) than a drunk driver! Another found that doctors who sleep 5.8 fewer hours than the week before might make 22% more serious mistakes. Surely no one wants to get in a car that7. (drive) by a drunk driver. So, 8. (多么) safe would you feel when you are under the care of a tired doctor?
Sadly this problem has been around for a long time. There9.no laws about it yet and hospital bosses don’t look like they care, either. And that is why we doctors are asking you10.( join) us this Sunday, to discuss how to deal with this problem!
