My troubles Last afternoon I was on my way home. When I got into the subway station I saw a familiar figure standing a train of another direction and prepared to make up a prescription to a pharmacy. She was my former colleague and my good friend. She retired for one year. She didn’t look very well. She told me about her current situation. Last month she had a heavy cough, and she felt afraid. So she went to hospital to do some checks. Nothing was found. This month she had a little red stool. So yesterday she went to hospital to do enteroscopy. The result was good. This year she often saw a doctor for uncomfortable feelings. But she didn’t describe her health. Although nothing was found, she has taken many medicines. Because she felt so bad that she had to go to hospital. The relationship between her and her child had some question all the time. Her son didn’t call her for three months. Normally she never told about her son. So I suggested her to see a psychiatrist. I told that maybe her pain isn’t in body but in emotion. She said that she knows if the relationship between her and her child become better her body will be well. She didn’t accept my suggestion. After we said goodbye I worried about her. How do I help her understanding her question? You know, in china many people can accept the body’s diseases and don’t accept psychological questions.
