Asthma
One morning...
School teacher : "Doc, doc! Emergency!"
Dr. Liew : "Quick, lie him down here."
School teacher : "I don't know why. Suddenly he became like this."
Dr. Liew : "Don't worry. It's an acute asthmatic attack."
School teacher : "He is turning blue!"
Dr. Liew : "I know. I know. Give me some space here." *administer bronchodilators*
School teacher : "Is he okay now? I have called his father. He is on his way."
Dr. Liew : "How are you feeling?"
Student : "I'm feeling better now."
Later...
Student's father (came in taxi) : "How is my son?"
Dr. Liew : "He is stable for now. You must take him to hospital as soon as possible."
Student's father : "Okay. Thanks doc."
In the taxi (heard from his father later)...
Taxi driver : "Wah, your son got asthma ah?"
Student's father : "Yalor... Susah lah, everytime like that. Seen a lot of doctor oledi. No improvement also. Sometime even middle of the night has to take him to hospital."
Taxi driver : "I know this one place ah, the sinseh very terror one. My friend's son got asthma also, something like your son. But see him three four times now cured oledi."
Student's father :"Yakah? Where it is?"
Taxi driver : "It's at the other end of the town. You want to give it a try? I have to turn around now."
Student's father : "Like that ah... ok also. Since everytime he went to the hospital also cannot cure, might as well ask the sinseh to see."
Taxi driver : "Okay." *turn taxi around*
Half way driving to sinseh's house...
Student's father : "Are you okay?"
