After 12 -> Double Charge !

Last Sunday 1 o'clock in the morning i was about to go to sleep when my mom asked me to check my sis as she was shivering intensely and her body was very hot. Never before I've seen her like this. I quickly told her fiancé (he was at my house at that time, staying for three nights because he needed to entertain his friends Mike and Elvina from Tasmania who were in KL). We both became quite panic and persuaded her to see doctor, but she refused by convincing us that's its just a normal fever and she will be ok after the Panadol kicks in .
1 hour after that.... i checked again, still HOT...i panicky called Syafiq to return home immediately because we wanted to use the car (Syafiq is the 2nd driver of my sis's car...suka pow kete kak idah dia). After Syafiq arrived i persuaded my sis to see doctor with the support from Syafiq and her fiance....(again & again....minah ni memang degil sikit)...i'm scared if she's having a high fever, at last after much persuasion she agreed to see doctor at Klinik TTDI Famili 24 hours...once the 4 of us arrived at the empty clinic,only the doctor and clinic assistant was there , i saw her shivering was getting slower and when i checked her fever at the forehead with the back of my palm ...erkk...the fever was getting better (wahhh demam ni boleh main acah-acah ke or maybe the panadol truly has kicked in ).... we were then, as expected, questioned by the doctor why we cannot wait until morning to see the doctor....furthermore the doctor explained that its just a normal fever and it's normal to have shivered, the clinic will double charge the fees after 12 am not only the clinic will charge double, the hospitals too will do the same things.... we leave the clinic after paying Rm45...RM30 for consultation (only taking the temperature...no bp no stethoscope ) and RM15 for 5 tabs of Zyrtec....
* before this i thought only Taxi will charge double after 12 am, the product has expanded

p/s: this post is wrote when i'm about to fall asleep...sorry if you too felt sleepy while reading this...

Just sharing....
