On the Light at the End of the Tunnel

"I got stomach pain. Talk to me. Where are you pushing me to? Who are you? I got pain here. And down there. Pain in my head. I got pain. Where you pushing me to? I just want to die. But I don't want pain. Can you do anything to help me relieve the pain? Talk to me."

Old lady were talking in Hokkien.

it's something like a short drama i saw in the hospital.

the old lady was apparently in some delirious state or something, she was going for some surgery, and the male nurse were pushing her towards the elevator.

thought the picture looked nice. :P

I've seen lots of these old chinese patients during my stint at hospis. They always spoke the same language similar to this old lady. I feel senility often brought with them, negative tones more so especially when they are not treated well by their family members. Sad but true!
