問題詳情：

It was unusually quiet in the emergency room on December 25. I was the nurse on duty that day. I didn’t think there would be any    41   , sighing about having to work on Christmas. Just then five bodies   42    at my desk, a pale woman and four children.

  “Are you all   43   ?” I asked.

  “Yes,” she said weakly and lowered her head.

   But when it came to   44   of their problems, things got a little strange. Two of the children had headaches, two children had earaches,   45   only one could tell me which ear was affected. The   46   complained of a cough but seemed to produce it.

I didn’t say anything but   47   that it might be a little while   48   a doctor could see her. She responded, “   49   your time,” and then added, “It’s warm in here.”

Then, I checked their registration form out of curiosity. No address---they were   50   . The waiting room was warm.

I went back to the nurse station and mentioned we had a homeless   51   in the waiting room. The nurses, complaining of   52   on Christmas, turned to sympathy for a family just trying to get   53   on Christmas. The team went into action, much as we do when there’s a 54 emergency. But this was a Christmas emergency.

We were all   55   a free meal on Christmas Day, so we took back that meal and prepared a big dinner for our   56  . We needed presents. We   57   from different departments candies, fruits and other things   58   that could be presents. As seriously as we met the   59   needs of the patients, our team worked to meet the needs of a family who just wanted to be warm on Christmas.

Later, as the family walked to the door to   60  , the mother came running back, gave me a hug and whispered, “Thanks for being our angels today.”
