this was difficult ... on the one hand one could not help but feel for her and her confused state ... on the other hand we were all ill one the ward and trying to recover... she had apparently refused medicine (other than paracetamol) and just kept screaming: 'doctor coming? doctor coming?....' ....after awhile even a saint is fed up. We were all trying to sleep on the ward and needed our rest to recover the best we could .... this kind of things doesnt help .... one couldnt help but hope that they would give her drugs so she would sleep and then finally we all could. so which is more selfish running out of compassion or refusing treatment and making those around you suffer too?
she is obviously in pain.
