I understand that what I saw that day (with one eye) in the Hadassah Hospital cannot easily be replicated elsewhere. Two days after my hospital experience, a tour of the Palestinian neighborhoods of Jerusalem – surrounded or divided by the security wall – served as a reminder of the region’s harsh and sobering realities.
我并不幼稚。我知道自己当天（用一只眼睛）在哈达萨医院所看到的一切不可能被轻易复制到其他地方。就在出院两天后，笔者到访了耶路撒冷的巴勒斯坦社区，这个被安全墙重重包围分割的地界不断提醒着人们该区域严酷冷峻的现实。
