Thank You: the Saddest Words 1

'Tor (short for doctor in Zamboanga) Salamat ha.. "
Two hours later, he succumbed...
Almost 2 liters of blood in the iliopsoas area...
Factor VIII concentrates and croprecipitates are ambitious products even in this area of 700,000 people...
he didnt have to say it but he already knew even before he was admitted...
back in my clinic a day before, i was arguing with him...
he was stubborn and insisting he's better off resting at home...
he was more concerned with the expenses...
he left the clinic wearing that Mae West gait due to severe pains on his left thigh...
a few minutes later he gave in...
and the rest is history...

Back to the time when i first saw him two years ago...
He was very happy that finally a specialist came over and chose to stay in town...
He brought expiring 5 vials of Factor VIII concentrates as donation...
"Give these to your indigent patients, tor... i don't need them..."
