Years ago I moved to Woodland Hills to take a job in a small hospital's emergency department.No one wanted to work on Christmas Eve，so the shift(轮班) went to me.I kissed my family goodbye and went off to spend the night in the hospital.It was a thankless job．

At 9 p．m.，the ambulance brought in a man in his 60s who was having a heart attack.His face was pale，and he was frightened.The whole night I did my best to save his life.Before I left in the morning to spend Christmas with my family，I stopped by to see how he was doing.It was still tough，but he had survived the night and was sleeping.

The following year I got Christmas Eve duty again.At 9 p．m.sharp，the ward clerk told me there was a couple who wanted to speak with me.When I approached them，the man introduced himself as Mr.Lee and said，“You probably don't remember me，but last Christmas Eve you saved my life.Thank you for the year you gave me.” He and his wife hugged me，handed me a small gift，and left.

The following year a new doctor had joined the group，but I wanted to see if Mr.and Mrs.Lee would return.This time，I volunteered for the shift.I kept an eye on the door.Once again，at exactly 9 p．m.，the Lees appeared，carrying a warmly wrapped bundle.It was their new grandchild.Mr.Lee，his family and I spent 13 Christmas Eves together.In the later years the staff all knew about the story and would work to give me time with him in the break room，where we spent a half hour each Christmas Eve.

The last year I saw him，he brought me a gift.I carefully opened the package and found a crystal(水晶) bell inside.It was engraved(镌刻) with a single word：Friendship.Now，my family，friends and I ring that bell every Christmas Eve at exactly 9 p．m.and offer our best wishes to the man who we won't forget.

(2016·潍坊期末统考)

“There's a mother in PICU (儿童重症监护病房) who wants to talk about a kit she received，” the nurse told me.“Something about it made her cry.”

I've been a child-life specialist at the Cleveland Clinic Children's Hospital since 2000.I help families understand diagnoses and treatment plans and manage the ups and downs that come with caring for a sick child.Tough talks with parents are part of the job，which still makes me feel nervous.

The kits the nurse was talking about were something I had recently introduced to the hospital: Comfort Kits from Guideposts.They were supposed to make a child's experience here easier，not upsetting.

When I came across the kits at a conference，I fell in love with them.A treasure box of items designed not only to entertain kids，but to comfort and inspire them.There's a coloring book，a stress ball，a CD of relaxing music，a hairy star
