Monday TV and A Sob Story
I know, I know... you are gonna grin now cos you know I will be writing about Grey's Anatomy again... What to do, I can't help it. I really really like the show. It's like ER you know... but more personal, I guess...
[please pretend that my spelling is correct, I didn't checkout the website for the actual names of the characters... hmm.. maybe I should...]
I like the showdown between (Derrick) Shepherd and (Preston) Burke over a patient who is not completely dead. Both of their women were watching how would they react. Both won; Shepherd get to do his best to save a patient, and Burke learnt to give in to right decisions for the right cause.
I also like the part when Meredith and Christina told George off. That he should come clean with Olivia, the nurse he nearly got together with, that he don't really like her. Guess both women had enough of man not telling them, and hurled out to George to tell him to do the right thing. Well, George did, and Olivia thanked him for being honest.
(Guys, it's always ego that prevent you from coming clean and being honest. What the heck, get it over and done with. So that other people can get on with their lives!)
That is something I will do to a friend. I will tell a person off if I know he/she is doing more harm than good to another person. Because alot of times, as a 3rd person, I saw the situation in the eye of the other person, and is able to give advice so that no more damage is done. And I pride myself with this gifting :)
Then there is also this memorable part that closes. After George told Olivia what he need to tell her, Olivia reminded him that he need to inform the family of the man Shepherd is trying to save that he is not dead, but needs to be operated on because of the tumour.
George recalls when earlier, he thought that a patient is dead and there is no need to waste time trying to rescucitate him, and Dr Bailey asked him what is the reason that they try to save patients that comes through their door.
Besides for experience, the other answer is, so that they know that they did their best.
I thought that was very powerful thing to bring to bed with, isn't it? Even when at times, things seemed beyond our salvage, we still need to put in our best. It's the accountability to ourselves, and sometimes, it's also the accountability to others too.

Before Grey's Anatomy began, I was flipping through Xing Ming to see if there are any news to get updated with. After reading one of the article, I cried.
A women passed away 3 months after she felt that she had some throat pain. It was throat cancer. The report shows her shriveling at 30 plus kg from 50 plus kg. The husband has sold his car and used up all his savings to finance the medical bills. And now he is left with 5 children (2 pairs of twins and one daughter). They are currently living in JB and he hopes to fetch them back so that he can take care of them.
My heart goes out to the kids and the father. The lost of a mother and a wife is not an easy pain to get by. And for the young children (they are all under 9 years old), how will they go on with their lives?
It's very very sad. I said a prayer for the family, and hope you will say one for them too. The father's name is Li Bao Hong.
I do wonder... there are people out there who live hard lives. Why then, are they people who spend money like nobody's business? Why are there people still wasting time on unforgiveness? Why do people still fight over little little things and being petty?
Life is so much more than these.
