Boys don't cry !!!

Yesterday I met a guy... He had come to GMCH for his wife's treatment.... But by the very short interaction, he will remain in my memory lane for long, may be my whole life....

Actually I was screening some of the blood donors at that time when this guy came to meet me...

"Sir, l need two units of blood for my wife, her condition is serious... Can you kindly make it somewhat faster?"

Although he was trying his best to control himself, there was tears in his eyes... I checked the requisition form which he handed over to me... His wife was in shock... For those who find it difficult to understand, his wife was having uncontrollable bleeding and the doctors were finding it difficult to maintain her blood pressure...  I asked the other donors to wait  for sometime and proceeded towards the concerned section along with him... and as soon as I put my hand over his shoulder to console him saying, "Don't worry, everything will be fine... ", he just cried.... He was unable to control his emotions any more... and though I didn't show anything, it just put some unbearable pressure within the core of my heart...

He was provided the required units of blood in the least possible time and  today around 3 hours back this guy came to meet me to inform that his wife is out of danger now. To be true, his smile expressed everything even before he said anything...

I've come across lots of such kind of incidents till now, but when this man cried for his ailing wife, it was like.. Like something different...  You know, when a man cries for his woman, its really somewhat different !!!
