Compassionate Light in the Night, Skills Alleviate Lasting Affection
Abstract：In June 2023, a diagnosis of terminal rectal cancer with liver and lung metastases completely changed the life trajectory of 72-year-old Aunt Wang. This elderly woman, who had once devoted her youth on the black soil, and after returning to Shanghai had been the backbone of her family, gradually collapsed under the invasion of the tumor. On January 20, 2025, the elderly woman passed away due to ineffective treatment. During the two years of treatment, the patient's family developed a deep connection with the Department of Oncology and the Department of General Surgery Emergency at Huadong Hospital. Three days after the funeral, her son hurriedly came to the hospital to present a carefully prepared victory banner and a thank-you letter, saying, 'Although my mother has passed away, the time spent at Huadong Hospital was very warm. I would like to express our gratitude on behalf of the whole family. This is also my mother's final wish.'
