Listen....

Started the day uneasy after reading about the death of a 30 year old man due toa severe headache.
Doctors should listen to patients. Patients are the one that know what is going on in them. I just cannot comprehend how the Doc was so adamant that it was only a normal headache. The fact that the Patient had been having the severe headache for 5 days. Slurred speech and weakness in the right arm and leg on the 5th day. Yet the Doc nonchalantly sent him home not agreeing to do a scan even after it was requested by the family. Whatever happen to the motto" better safe then sorry" Now 1 1/2 year old Tricia is fatherless all because the Doc just won't open his mind and heart to listen.

Taking a short trip to KL tomorrow. ta...ta...
