No matter if you were a doctor or patient, it would always good to be young. Being young meant infinite possibility and infinite hope. Although Zhang Fan was tired after performing surgery for more than 10 hours already, he was still capable of going on for another 10 hours.
Meanwhile, Director Zhao and Vice Director Song were having a much harder time after working for 10 hours as both of them were already past 50 years of age. Both of them were no longer able to control their legs at all. They were only still standing up by relying on the leg bones! Both of them were very stubborn and unwilling to concede defeat to their age! In hospitals, especially larger hospitals, almost all of the most skilled doctors would always be the really stubborn type who hated giving up.
The medical field was really ridiculous like this. Anyone who wasn't willing to be vicious to themselves would be unable to reach the highest level of medical skill.
