vicious circle
------------------
ben had a quarrel with honey. honey felt rejected and disappointed by ben. honey faints and got admitted to the hospital. honey's negative feeling remains; unable to cope with the feelings she vented it on the nurses. nurses A, B and C had seen her many times and often the main reason for her admission was similiar- fainting spells and unhappiness at home/ workplace/ etc. the nurses gotten so used to her behaviours that they avoid interacting with her unless absolutely needed. this negative engery brews on like a vicious circle. the more honey vents her anger on the nurses, the more others avoid her and the she is avoided the more she feels rejected and the more angry she is. then... one day someone decided to break the circle. she tried to shower honey with love and concern but honey snapped back at her. honey said "oh please! you guys are showing so much favourtism to the others." in between the lines honey was longing for more love and more concern. she wanted someone to sit by her side and talk to her, sayang (dote) her and tell her how great she is but not appreicated for. but what honey said to the nice lady caught the young lady by surprise. the young lady felt her heart broken into pieces ran to one of the staff (me) and nearly in tears told me what she heard. i told her "don't take it to heart. she is like that. she F* me infront of the patients, visitors and doctors on the 2nd day of her admission. so you aren't that bad, ok?" i wanted to talk to honey and help her iron her issue (of the heart) but i am too busy. and now i have to talk to the young nice lady who was merely wanting to care for her. oh well... hope the days that follow will be God-empowered and guided days, where i can get sometime to talk to honey and make her see the concern we all do have for her and the fear that distant us from her. *sigh*

positive circle
-------------------
mummy had been doctor-hopping. cuz the previous doctor can't find what wrong with her and so did the previous previous doctor. mummy get nervous easily and worries alittle more than others. but when mummy is fine, she is happy. my teachers used to tell me knowledge is power and it is so real in the case of mummy. mummy had been rather unhappy when i 1st saw her. she wanted to find out why is she still in pain and what the doctors can do for her. but being busy as we always are, nobody tells her anything in great detail and she being rather poor in english dare not ask too much too. so imagine the great joy when someone started to explain the reason why she can't eat after 12 mid-night and have to be hooked up to a plastic bottle of water. after understanding the reasons she slept soundly and was very cooperative from that day onwards. her face beam with trust and joy when the nurses (regardless of whoever it is) ask her how she is feeling. the positive energy emitted from her draws people to her. the auntie from the next bed would talk to her and mummy could even explain why she needs to be hooked to a bottle of water. when the auntie shares her long medical history to mummy, mummy would even comfort her and assure her that the nurses and doctors here will do their best to help her with her condition. its so comforting to see such lovely patient.

**knowledge is power. some "common sense" are not that "common" afterall.**
