i have finally adhere to the statement which i find it rather
absurd in the past. Singaporean can die
but can't be sick.
I am at my young adult age right now and a food posioning strike me
on friday night. Thinking it is almost 2.30am, i could forsee that
i would either, go to the nesrest 24 hour clinic, A AND E
department or just wait till the next day and see how. Things
started to go through my mind which it has never occured before.
Army has MO and School days had subsidies from polyclinic and now i
have to be charged for medical bill almost fully like any other
working adult. All of a sudden, financial analysis started its
action in my mind and i must say i came form a humble family and it
really worry me about the bill and medicine costs.
My chioce: i tolerated till 4am, vomited more than 7 times and
finally blood came out of my throat, i changed my mind. the whole
cost from taking a cab to a 24 hour clinic and consultation and
medicine costs me SGD110.
I was sadden not because of my food posioning, i was sadden i have
to actually go to such measure to cut down my expenses. Medical
bill goes sky rocket high, packages set in to protect the poor, i
am not too poor for packages and not too rich not to think about
money. "I am the second child of the family, neglected."
