Wife-husband An unsympathetic husband. "Lay your head on my shoulders, I''ll take all your troubles away...." But how much sympathy do you want? How does an Asian husband express sympathy? Piles is a painful condition. Bleeding and pain. The general practitioner referred you to a Mount Elizabeth surgeon who wanted surgery the next morning and at least 2 nights stay. The total fees may be $3,500 - $4,000 inclusive of $100 per "visit to say hello". The amount was large for the husband sole breadwinner. It was difficult to tell you to go to a government hospital and that would indicate that money is more important than love. Do you really need the most expensive Mount Elizabeth surgeon? Are there not other good affordable surgeons in Singapore? You would have to decide whether to be operated by the most expensive surgeon in Singapore as the family savings will be used up. One external prolapsed pile measuring 0.5 cm and 2 small polyps inside the anus. The pile had burst, causing pain and bleeding. How does the spouse express sympathy? Too much of the romance novels made women lose a sense of realism. Reading such novels over the past 2 years as a full time and not interested in finding a job. White knights in shining armour and red roses on Valentine's Day. Asian husbands seldom have such images when they have to fight corporate battles and politics and competitors. The best way to get sympathy will be to pour all your sorrows to a close girl friend. Generally, men seldom share sorrows and that may be why they have shorter life span than women. Hugging to comfort a person, lay your head on my shoulder. These are Western cultural practices and the new generation may be better at that. The best friend suggested a surgeon in Mount Alvernia and Gleneagles. It was a first-time occurence of piles. Would there be other treatments? It was possible that tying up of the piles, drug injection to shrink them and anti-spasmodic drugs to relieve the pain may work and this would cost considerably less than general anaesthesia, surgery and 2 nights stay in the hospital and several weeks of post-op pain in the anal area. Such surgeons in private practice are difficult to find but then there are still some of them in Singapore. Why do you need sympathy for piles? There are many starving and sick people in this world. Instead of being self-centered, go out and do voluntary help and you will see that the cancer patients, the handicapped, the wheel-chaired bound and the war veterans need help and they deserve sympathy but they do not want sympathy.
