What is Geriatric???

I remember having a conversation with one of the twins sometime back and I asked her what posting you are doing now. She told me "Geriatric". I ask what is that .. and she told me to guess. Well we went round and round in a cricle and finally I found out it is treatment of people that are older in life.

Well.. when they warded by Dad at UH, guess which ward he was put under, "Geriatric". And all the people in the ward were I would say above 70+.

Since my Dad is out of the hospital and we wanted to bring him for a complete checkup. So I search around and found out that beside UH, Pantai is about the only other hospital that have this specialist. I mean if you want to give birth, take a look at your heart and probably any other problem all the other hospital have plenty of doctors.

I called up Pantai and it was either engaged or nobody answered the phone. Finally when someone did they passed me round and round. Gave me a number to call which was the line I call getting the engaged tone. Finally managed to talk to someone and left my number for them to call me back. I waited and commented to a few of my frens that probably the people dont want money never call me back.

Since it is my parent health that we are talking about, my sister and I agreed that we are going to drive out to Pantai trow and make a appointment. I think if it was any other matter we would have just forget it. Since it is for our parents, I guess we have not much of a choice.

Lucky at about 3 pm somebody did call me back from Pantai. I guess they do want my money after all. So made appointment for my Dad and Mom to have a complete checkup.
