I ran to the next room! . That boy screamed almost like hell! This is painful!!! He had severe headache that started a few days back. I didn't clerk his case, so I can't figure out the specific history. But he looked severely irritated. He knocked and kicked anything and everything around him! "Stat the vancomycin now sister!" "Ok doctor" . "He might have radang otak . Stat for lumbar puncture and CSF analysis", said the MO.  . I left the room. As my eyes can't cope with the feeling that I felt. Sad. Kecik-kecik dah kena gitu. (*Hati tisu*) Jangan nangis. Jangan nangis. 'Mengong Dr Najwa neyh eh...
