was working last night and there was a kid who had a cut on her head~ she had 2 choices:

1. Let the doctor glue it up wif tissue glue

2. Go A&E and let the other doctors do the stitching or gluing

she didn't want any of those choices and keep insisting on going home but she cannot go home cause her wound will have infections which will make it worse~ so what did she do?

make a scene~ cry~ refuse to cooporate~ etc~

I was outside doing my stuffs while she was inside making noise~ when she came out~ she still couldn't make a choice and still refuses treatment~ but at least she's more calm down now~ i looked at her and told her that it will be over very fast~ all she needs to do is to endure that pain for a while and it'll be all gone in a moment~ if its very painful, clench her fists, count sheeps, focus on munching sweets~ while u r focusing on all these time will pass faster~ (cause the doctor told her it was 5 mins so she's got the idea that 5 mins is very long. but it is la if u r like just sitting there and doin nothing~ haha~) also told her that this pain isn't as the most painful thing she's gotta face~ in future there's more painful things that she's gotta bear and if she's not brave how is she gonna protect her parents? (i also had no idea why i said that~ haha~)

after my encouragement and persuasion and directions on how to distract herself, she sums up her courage and went in~ with occasional complains of pain~ she clenched her fists~ eats the sweet~ and the most painful part was over~ =) she didn't had to go to choice 2 which is more painful i guess~ haha~ she was brave~

what lesson can we learn? many~

in life~ we usually don't have a painless choice~ its just which one has more consequences~

when people around you are feeling down~ sad~ unmotivated~ a little encouragement can make a big difference~ =)

when in pain~ clench your fists~ close your eyes~ munch on sweet~ focus on something else like counting sheeps~ the worse will be over very soon~

no matter what you do~ BE BRAVE! cause after every storm there's a rainbow waiting for you~ =)

this is what i've learnt but i guess other people have other perceptions and learnt diff things from this? =D

but this happened at the very right time... to me... =)
