03S78. HCJC.

27 of us make up the lovely class of 03S78 :)

it was a year and 6 mths ago that we graduated from hwachong, nothing much has
changed since then - we still have the good old class outings when we spend most
of the time walking around (+ extended one in europe recently), we still play
mahjong, watch movies, go æçå¦! together (at nwxiang's request of course)..

to many more years of friendship!

A random story from med sch

Heys, hope you all are doing well. Maybe someone could post the photo of the dinner at Golden Mile heh. Anyway, this is a real-life story my Problem-Based Learning tutor shared today. Perhaps you'll find your own 寓意s in it:

When he was a medical student in China (didnt state which university), he had a senior 2 or 3 years older who had just graduated from medical school and was going to be posted to the hospitals. This senior, for various personal reasons, did not want to leave the city where the university was located. So he came up with a plan to escape being posted to a hospital in the more rural areas.

He decided that he would inject himself with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, wait for the symptoms to present and then request to be posted to a hospital in the city as he was too ill to travel. He felt that it was reasonably safe to do so as the treatments available for TB at that time were encouraging and he felt he had a very good chance of recovery.

So he went to the lab, took a vial of the bacteria and injected just a little into himself. Unfortunately, unlike the usual TB which spreads through respiratory droplets, by injecting Mycobacterium tuberculosis into his bloodstream he effectively gave himself acute/miliary/disseminated tuberculosis... which is rapidly fatal.

So he reported sick with astonishing verisimilitude: an extremely high fever and a host of other symptoms, albeit not usually seen in normal TB patients. But, afraid of getting punished for what he had done, he withheld this crucial piece of information from all his doctors and professors who were scrambling frantically to save him. Apparently, all the blood cultures turned out negative because no one had thought of testing for TB (which needs a special culture medium).

As you would expect (for the story to be told in the first place), he finally confessed to his doctors. But by that time, it was too late and he passed away.

On his deathbed as he was close to death, he was surrounded by classmates. Concerned as perhaps they might have been, they came also to scold him for his stupidity.
