Coffining of Silent Mentor @ 20/5/2022

When I first signed up for the Silent Mentor Workshop, I only thought of how this could be a great opportunity to improve my practical skills. I am, after all, an “e-MBBS” candidate,
having undergone 2 years of my medical degree during the COVID-19 pandemic. My experience, however, showed that I learned and got a lot more than what I bargained for.
Despite
not saying a word, my Silent Mentors taught me multitudes. Not only was I able to learn new things from them, but I was also given the opportunity to apply everything I had learned, to make mistakes, and to gain indispensable lifetime experience. I was able
to practise my suturing techniques on actual human flesh and intubate a human body. Although I will get more learning opportunities in the future, this initial learning is essential to minimize mistakes when the stakes are high.
My Silent Mentors are the teachers that I will always keep in mind when I help my own patients in the future. It was because of their sacrifice that I was able to improve as a doctor, as well as a person. I am incredibly
grateful to be a part of this program.

感恩能参与第32届无语良师工作坊，以参与者的身份和大体老师一起完成了整个课程。从第一天把大体老师们从冷冻箱里取出来到最后一天的送别仪式，至今都还历历在目。老师走了，却舍身于医学教育，为医生以及医学生们上了一堂特别且永生难忘的课。在这几天的工作坊，我学习到了不止是知识，而是智慧。是老师您，让我看到了生死，学会了无私奉献，懂得了尊重感恩，感受到了爱与关怀。大体老师是生命的勇者，舍身的菩萨，也是最特别的老师。感谢你们无声的教诲，让我对生命的价值与意义有了更深的省思，希望你们一路走好。感恩您，老师。感谢所有促成无语良师工作坊的工作人员和专业人士，感恩你们。

To call it simply a workshop, would be such an understatement. This has been a journey for me. From getting to know
the family of my mentor, up till his departure, it has felt as if I have known Mr Cheah for such a long time. Despite not uttering a single word to me, the lessons I have learned from my Silent Mentor have been etched into my heart. I am forever grateful to
his selflessness for donating his body for the education of medical professionals. I will ensure that what knowledge my mentor has passed on to me, I will pass on to the future generations. This journey shall be one I will forever cherish in my heart. Thank
you, Silent Mentor!

虽然曾几次在无语良师工作坊当过自愿者，但这次再以参与者的身份参加这个活动的时候依然让我相当震撼。从第一次看到冰冻着的大体老师，第一次为老师净身，到每天的工作坊，当我看到陈老师身上愈来愈多的伤痕，和日益增加的尸斑，还是觉得很心痛。虽然不曾与大体老师见过面，但这一个星期相处下来，她就像是一个很熟悉的长辈、老师、朋友。虽然陈老师已经不在了，但在生命的尽头，她选择用自己的身体，教会了我很多东西。除了医学知识和手术技巧，大体老师更是提醒了我人性本善，而善良是一种选择。我感恩老师们无声的教诲和舍己为人的大爱精神，也很荣幸能以学生的身份，陪他们走完人生最后一程。愿天堂没有病痛，愿老师们一路走好。
