please doctor help me!

Lady : doctor, my baby has fever for few days, she's not feeding well... Refuse to take oral medication... Please treat her...

Me : ok... Let me examine her...

After thorough examinantion...

Me : cik puan... Ur child is sick... Most probably due to the lung infection.. She needs to be hospitalized ...

Lady : doctor, please give her the best meds but I don't want my child to be hospitalized

Me : owh... Really?

Lady : yes... Give her the meds and we'll go home..

Me : just now u said ur child refuse oral meds?

Lady : then give her injection of antibiotic!

Me : owh.. Fine.. So I guess u ll be giving the injection @ home?

Lady : no...u give one now.. And tomorrow we come again!

Me : it doesn't work that way madam...

Lady : alaa.. Bole la doctor.. Demam biasa je ni..

Me : dah tu kalau demam biasa apsal sampai ke kecemasan?
