The opportunity to compose this essay for the Eastern Association for the Surgery Trauma's Oriens Award has been the most terrific privilege of my training thus far. This award gave my passion a voice. It helped me better understand myself and my need to be a part of this world, this universe that selflessly dedicates every moment of themselves to the care of the critically ill and injured patient. I found every single past Oriens Essay and Keynote Address is a testament to the pure resilience, strength, and grit necessary to embody the calm and collected exterior of the internally screaming trauma surgeon. To me, this award, and all the previous essays, represents the genuine passion of this community and its continued support of each other. As I continue to process the honor of being selected for this prestigious award, I would like to thank my peers, mentors, and the entire trauma community for your perpetual inspiration and education. Your success and timeless dedication to the evolution of this field simply fascinates me. In preparing to join this society, it is my hope that some of these words may inspire, in an effort to reprise my mentors and truly thank you for selecting my essay for this year's award.
有机会为东方创伤外科学会的 Oriens 奖撰写这篇文章,是我迄今为止培训中最棒的特权。这个奖项让我的热情有了声音。它帮助我更好地了解自己,以及我需要成为这个世界、这个宇宙的一部分的愿望,这个宇宙无私地将每一刻都奉献给重症患者和受伤患者的护理。我发现每一篇过去的 Oriens 论文和主题演讲都是对纯粹的适应力、力量和勇气的证明,这些都是体现冷静和沉着的创伤外科医生内在素质所必需的。对我来说,这个奖项和所有以前的论文都代表了这个社区的真正热情及其对彼此的持续支持。当我继续接受被选为这个享有盛誉的奖项的荣誉时,我要感谢我的同行、导师和整个创伤社区,感谢你们的不断启发和教育。你们的成功和对这一领域发展的永恒奉献令我着迷。在准备加入这个协会时,我希望这些话能够激励他人,以效仿我的导师,并真正感谢你们选择我的论文获得今年的奖项。
