This is another wonderful contest about our hospital experience. I am eager and happy to share my experience.

Have you been to hospital ? What took you there

I have been to the hospital. I went to visit a friend of mine who got hospitalized. She was very ill and had to be taken to the hospital. When I went to see her, she was conscious but it was obvious that she was sick. There was an IV line at the back of her hand which was connected to a drip.

She is a very good friend of mine. I was so distressed when I learned that she had been taken to the hospital. I went there as soon as I could. I must say, it was really sad seeing her in that condition, but I was glad that she was already being treated and was in safe hands.

Have you encountered any experience? Good or bad

Yes, I have encountered an experience. While I went to visit my friend in the hospital, another patient who was hospitalized was confirmed dead. It was a really sad and traumatizing event for me. The patient's family was devastated. They cried and shouted in agony.

I was really scarred by that event to the point that whenever I visited the hospital, I would remember it. It is never easy to lose a loved one. I couldn't possibly imagine what they felt at that moment.

The wife of the patient who passed away was by his side. When he died, she was inconsolable. I felt great pity, not just for her, but for the entire family. It is not an experience anyone should go through.

Do you believe on every medical result given by a doctor in the hospital to be true ?

Yes, I believe that the medical results given by the doctors are true and should be believed. Before concluding a result, a series of tests are run. Lab tests, physical tests, assessment and some other procedures are carried out in order to come up with a result.

Every doctor wants to come up with the right diagnosis so that their patient can receive proper treatment. So I see no reason why I won't believe their medical results. I do agree that there could be times when results could be wrong, maybe due to a mistake, but that is something that rarely happens.

What mode of treatment would you advise a friend for a solution? A hospital medication or Native(Natural herbs) treatment. Why!

I would recommend hospital medication every time. While some people prefer traditional medication, those who administer it won't know what to do if complications arise. Health professionals that work in the hospitals have been thoroughly trained on the human system and what to do at different stages, especially if complications arise.

These health professionals understand the mechanism of the diseases, therefore they know how to effectively treat them. Modern medication has been tested and proven. I do not think the same can be said about traditional medication.

Conclusion

The hospital is an interesting place. Different people have their own fair share of experience. Some people do not like going to the hospital, even when they are really sick. That is not the right way to go. If you are severely ill, please visit the hospital. The health professionals are there for you.

I am inviting @talktofaith, @mjerry and @joymm to participate in this contest.
