2 {; `; S8 ^/ g2 NA Chinese saying goes like this--illness comes like landsliding but goes like cocoon stripping" so many years ago when I saw the word "patient" for the first time, I remembered the two meanings immediately--when one requires medical care, he needs to be enduring without complaint.

Care is required, not necessarily medical though.2 z) l& ~1 L; m# I/ V
