23、我看起来和其他医生一模一样。这种情况一直到我戴上我的卷曲彩虹假发,大红鼻子和我的名牌“拉里医生大声笑出来”为止。我穿过门走进候诊区,那里有一种熟悉的无聊和紧张气氛。人们不舒服地坐在塑料椅子上,翻阅着旧杂志,这些杂志以前都被看过许多遍了。焦虑的父母做他们所能做的安慰紧张和哭泣的孩子。2在这个特殊的场景中央,我看到一个小女孩,她的脚踝是正常尺寸的两倍大。我和值班护士交谈时,她告诉我,劳拉从自行车上摔下来后,她的父母就赶紧把她送到了医院。自从来到这里,劳拉一直疼得哭泣。尽管医生和护士会为她疗伤,但让她感觉更好却是我的职责。3科学研究表明,笑产生的化学物质可以让人感觉更好,这意味着小丑医生是可以帮上忙
24、的。我们是受过专门训练的小丑,是“医院小丑”项目的一部分。我选择这个职业是因为我小时候去医院的经历。虽然医生和护士做得很好,但医院并不是真正为儿童设计的。我以前在医院里的许多时间都是在感到害怕和非常无聊中度过的!作为一个小丑医生意味着我可以通过使人们快乐来帮助他们。4参观过医院和其他医疗设施,我们小丑医生便与医疗专业人员合作。在一个特殊的日子里,我们花时间让病人、病人家属,通常还有医院工作人员振作起来!我们是通过变魔术、唱歌、讲故事,当然,也讲一些荒唐的笑话来安慰他们的。不过,有些孩子不喜欢笑,尤其是在他们痛苦的时候。我们必须非常敏感,并与医生和护士密切合作,(因为)他们让我们了解每个病人的最新情况。5我的魔法药似乎确实奏效了。当医生专注于检查劳拉的脚踝时,我变了一个魔术来吸引她的注意。虽然她明显还有些痛苦,但她恐惧和焦虑的表情首先被一个小小的微笑取代了,然后当我“神奇地”从口袋里拿出她的袜子时她大声地笑了。看到他们的女儿如此快乐,反过来也让劳拉的父母更加放松。6至于我呢?噢,当我摘下我的假发和红鼻子时,我仍然笑容满面,因为我记得这一天中所有的欢乐和笑声。虽然今后劳拉和其他人去医院就诊的次数可能会更多,我希望小丑医生能使这里成为一个更友好的探视场所。别忘了,“笑是最好的药”这句话确实是对的。
