it is very English in spend hours in a hospital dead. More than one will sound familiar with the picture of the insider entered for a few days and the entire cast of family, friends, neighbors and giving pegao relay to not leave the patient alone for a minute, spending a sleepless night uncomfortable seat, "lest you need something." For nothing more often than not, because that are the nurses and other health staff. Say that the use of both time and human effort but the company is unproductive comfort, relationships are narrow and "today for you, tomorrow for me."
This contrasts with the experience of Anglo sick. I tell the case of a British family friend that struck me particularly and clearly illustrates the differences between one society and another, with the confidence that gives a glimpse of a family between twenty million.
Chris is a valued former colleague, English, father of a lovely family and son and daughter of two families very "normal" and typical in the country. His wife gave birth to her second child and the birth went horribly wrong. She ended up in intensive care unit and the baby was taken to a children's hospital two hours away.
will understand that the man spent the worst days of his life. He accompanied his wife on his recovery while his newborn daughter spent several days without a single visit at the other hospital. I attended amazed at his story, once things became a bad shot, and I could not help asking again and again: "And the parents and in-laws (all retired)? And the brothers? And friends of all time? And the neighbors? Where was everybody? ".
