When to choose



"Who sent the doctor to do the research here?", asked the village chief.


From the question of kades, it is clear that he does not support government programs in the field of health.


"The provincial government of mr. Kades, who heard the rise of drugs in the rubble and public awareness on health that is still lacking in the corners" I said a little gregetan


I was busy enjoying a beautiful afternoon when I arrived intercepted 3 young people


"Doctor is wrong?", he asked


"Well, what's wrong?", because I was astonished


"Doctors never interfere in our affairs here, I've received enough doctors as guests here" they said and left.


"A strange young man" I said", bathinku


But looking at the three young people, it looks like they are all drug addicts, his eyes are empty .The movement of his body is not normal.


I shook my head, watching the damage of generations by drugs.


"Good afternoon doctor", greet a member of the TNI


"Good afternoon too sir, again the road as well huh?", I asked


"Yes the doctor, as well as the unjust doctor" he said


"This is very beautiful doctor, but the problems of residents here are not as beautiful as the natural panorama, so the doctor is careful, do not like to walk alone" said rasyid sir who became babinsa officer here.


"That's sir, HIV cases here are on the rise, as drug cases develop, very dear" I said


my conversation with Rashid further strengthened my feelings, this area is not safe, but in a state of concern.


Tomorrow held counseling and free treatment opened, strange that comes only a matter of fingers even though the population here is quite a lot, which recorded 2,200 souls.


"Maybe the population here is a healthy doctor" said Dr Rizal


Maybe he saw me astonished to see that came just a little.


"we are a team of doctors from the city deliberately came here, to share knowledge and open free treatment.so who want to seek treatment or consultation please come" said the doctor


It was noon, even though we closed together, we were honestly a little disappointed to see less interest from the public in the health sector.


"Thus we return to the area of each doctor, thank you for being a compact team in this noble task" said Rizal doctor as moderator at each meeting.


From afar I saw a group of people who looked like it, would go here, reduce our intention that would close the extension.


"Assalamu alaikum doctor" said one of those who came


"Wa aleikum salam, please come in" I said


"Sorry our doctor arrived late" they said


"We are not residents here doctors, but villagers across the mountain" said a man who later introduced himself as the head of his village.


"Any health check, huh?", asked the doctor


"Yes, doctor", they said in unison.


We are deeply moved to see their will and awareness on health, despite having to walk 4 km.


"Doctor, I as the head of the village of Pagergungunung, invited the team of doctors, so as to come to our village, there is a great need for doctors" said Kades


Seeing their sincerity, we also agreed to move the doctor's team this afternoon to the mountain, move our duty bsru 3 days here, because the negative response of this village is more inclined to us.


We picked up 10 selfless motorists first to the head of his village, because the kades themselves did not want to meet again.


The warm welcome of the pagergunung villagers who apparently live in peace and religious atmosphere is very visible in their daily lives.


"Welcome to our remote village of doctors, we very much the arrival of guests of the team of doctors who will contribute their knowledge in our village far from the bustle of the city", said the village chief who was so enthusiastic to welcome us


Very contrary to the welcome of the village head and some of the people in the village we first came.


Apparently here is malaria-prone, probably due to the factor of very cold air, fortunately we carry a very large stock of drugs.


The most crowded dental poli held by susan doctors, we do not ask for payment because it has become our obligation to provide assistance to the community.


"The village next door is doctor's department", said an officer at night patrol


"Why mang?", I asked


"Tens of young people sakau, they headed to the sub-district rejected puskesmas because they had previously been given a warning but were not ignored" said mang asep


"It turns out the village chief was involved in a network of dealers", I heard one of the villagers chatting


"do you know?", I asked


"he was at the church this afternoon and was taken to the doctor's town because of the young man who was really, the police finally investigated and managed to find evidence" said another resident.


The counseling period has been completed, we have to part with the citizens who are very good and sangst impressed our team of doctors.


The cries of the citizens released us with a heavy heart.


"Thank you the villagers who are kind and very dear to us, with the weight of our hsti said during the split, hopefully still able to meet at a later time" said the rizal doctor.


The hand of the citizens made me shed tears, they were simple people but could make our hearts happy.


An hour's drive we arrived at the sub-district capital, and were taken to the local health center because the car would take us to Surabaya, pick him up here, as agreed.


The Asian doctor approached us, and he was the one in control of this health center.


"Welcome to the doctor, please rest first before continuing the journey" said the Asian doctor friendly


We enjoyed lunch with great pleasure, not long after that came the car that picked us up to the city of Surabaya.

I finally returned to my village after completing my 10-day mission.


My family welcomed me with great joy and warmth.


"Drink first wedang gahenya son,agsr your body warm lahi" said grandma.


This is a moment that I miss so much when traveling, the atmosphere of a comfortable home and make me feel at home for a long time at home.


The house I've occupied rhyme is still a baby.


"A few days ago arya came here son" said my father


"Remain dad?", I asked


"Want to meet you son, she told me about her intention to propose to you", said the father.


Dad kept on smoking his cigarette, making him cough, this is the thing I really don't like about my dad, his smoking habit that can't be stopped


"Dad, cut down on smoking" I admonished you gently


Father's habit, if reprimanded about cigarettes, will not answer and divert the conversation to other things.


"what do you think, son?", asked the father


"Don't think about it yet, Dad" I said.


"you're old enough, son, I want to carry a grandson" said the father.


"Zalimaahh, you're in for a meal!", cried the grandmother from the kitchen


Food menu that bothered my taste


There is Jengkol clover, peanut butter and pecel catfish


"Wahhh, big meal today" I said


Grandma and grandpa smiled smilingly watching me eat so voraciously.


Happiness lies in simplicity and in the way we thank God
