A few weekends ago, when I went home for a several days, I had a wonderful conversation with one of close friend. He explained to me that he for some weird reason he has reason he has been having a constant cold and high fevers. I wondered to my self, well  if he is sick why doesn't he go to the hospital? I guess he read my mind because without me even asking he said, "... and don't even think of telling to go to the doctor because I don't think is that serious and I just simply hate doctors." I was shocked the way he came at me about it as if he knew what I was thinking. Then I explained to him that it can be several things such as allergies, a simple cold or a serious infection that it's just starting. He might some strong medication to help his body fight whatever pathogen it's trying to fight. If it was a serious illness and it gets worse he will be in serious problems. Somehow, I managed to convince him to go to the hospital to get checked up since he was drinking Tylenol (for the fever) and Robitussin ( for the cold) and it was not going away. It felt good being able to explain to someone thing about their body that they didn't understand.
