Chapter 26

The Inpatient Department was packed. Some of the patients were not assigned to a hospital room, and they had no choice but to sleep In the hallway. A majority of them, who had been in the hospital for a long time, were severely ill. They had been around when I was admitted to the hospital, and they were still here when I was discharged. As I walked along the hallway, I saw some familiar faces.

An elderly man asked, "Weren't you discharged? Why are you in the hospital again?"
