Love?

Love is a drug
That's true! I've been in a few relationships and I know that love really is a drug. It can makes you feel good when you have it...sometimes it gives you bad feeling.
However, I do not really fall for the latter effect. When love tends to make me feel uncomfortable, I just stop it. That's the case for my previous relationships. I don't really have problem with ending a relationship as long as I believe it doesn't worth anymore to hold it.
Life is meaningful and the best love only goes to the best lover. Not everyone is the best lover. At maybe some point in time you think a person is the best one, then for few years later, you realized that you were wrong. Well, just don't buy into stuff so prematurely. Use both heart and brain. Only the best person deserve the best of my care. And when I settle down (cough cough... In a very long time), there will be and only one who stays beside me forever.

Not human is humane

I happen to see one fragment in Cambodia's people mindset : lack of trust.

Probably I cannot blame anybody for this since this is one thing happens after civil war. In genocide, people were forced to kill their friends. Good guy wouldn't live long. There was a word created by those crazy murderers called "Svai Ris Kun" which means to criticize yourself. Sometime it goes beyond that. Intellectual were considered enemy. Those who were honest were murdered and those who hid their identity might also be dead-because of their friends... reporting them.

Trust began to fade. Doubt took over people since. 

I witness myself that they couldn't easily restore their original mind even it has been already 35 years already. They do not feel secured with people. They do not generally try to be generous. This trauma is not easily healed. It has been embedded in their mind. 

Being a healthcare provider and a young human, I try to be as humane as possible. I help a lot of people without me getting any returns. Yes, I don't have salary. But that doesn't stop me from trying my best to give them the best I could. I just want to help.

Unfortunately, the fragment still exists especially among older Cambodians. However, I am very confident that in the near future, trust will regain its power back and the perfect fantasy people are dreaming of will be made real.

Paquet-anné: Comment pour calculer et la significante

Si vous êtes plus à la service de médicale pneumologique (comme moi), il y a plus de chance que vous avez entendus le mot "paquet-année".
Lisez bien puisque il est important.
Paquet année ou Pack years en anglais est un unité qui, après avoir calculé, peut nous orienter vers le diagnostique de certains maladies pulmonaires. La formule de paquet année est calculée comme:
Paquet année = Nombre de paquet de cigarette fumé par jour x La durée de fumé en année.
Par exemple, un sujet qui fûmes 1 paquet de cigarette par jour pour 3 ans, le paquet année est de 3.
La signification de paquet année reste une éthologie pour orienter vers deux maladies pulmonaires majeures. Ce sont la BPCO (Brochopneumonie Chronique Obstructive) et le cancer du poumons. Un recherce a démonstré que la population qui fûmes 21-40 paquet années a la VEMS (Vitesse Expiratoire Maximale par Seconde) à peu près 90% par rapport aux sujets sains, et 80% pour plus de 61 paquet années respectivement. Le paquet année est un prédicteur hautement significant pour ces maladies.
Donc, il vaut mieux de suggérer les gens d'arrêter la cigarette. Et pour les médecins, ils peuvent suspecter plus à la BPCO et le cancer de poumon pour les sujet ayants plus de paquet années.
