  • Els seus ulls miraven l'espai ple de llits improvisats i cares preocupades.

    His eyes looked at the space full of improvised beds and worried faces.

    The flamenco music outside was a constant reminder of the fun that had brought so many people to the festival, but also of the emergencies the hospital was now facing.

    Beside him, Marta, a newly recruited nurse, was striving to keep up the pace.

    "Jordi, you look like you need a break."

  • " Però Jordi movia el cap decidit, "No em puc permetre parar, Marta.

    But Jordi shook his head determinedly, "I can't afford to stop, Marta.

  • Hi ha massa feina.

    There's too much work."

  • Jordi estava a punt de tractar una ferida severa quan les seves mans van començar a tremolar.

    Jordi was about to treat a severe wound when his hands started to tremble.

  • Carla, una altra infermera, va veure la seva situació crítica.

    Carla, another nurse, saw his critical situation.

  • "Jordi, has de parar.

    "Jordi, you need to stop.

  • No serveix de res que t'acabis desmaiant aquí.

    It's no use if you end up fainting here.

  • La teva salut també és important!

    Your health is important too!"

  • " La raó en les paraules de Carla el va plantar al seu lloc.

    The reason in Carla's words anchored him in place.

    I'll let you take over."

  • "Deixar el pacient en mans de Carla i asseure's per descansar va ser un pas difícil per a Jordi, però necessari.
