Foreign husbands should read

Health, death, the law is the only thing.

Over the past week, I've been through all these things.

One thing to want to share experiences as a guide.

For anyone who is lost in the ocean

This is useful for people with foreign husbands or wives; people close to foreigners.

In three stories.

Health matters. Most Thai people pay very little attention to health insurance because we have welfare from the state. Civil servants, corporate employees do not have problems because there is a care organization. But ordinary people who work independently are not in the social security system. Hospital attendance is a big deal in life because they do not know how much to pay for treatment. It is impossible to control the budget. One disease may mean a whole life. In the provinces, people do not have to be afraid of going to the hospital because everything is taken care of by the state. There is a Meos hospital, but in the capital Bangkok, one visit to the hospital is almost a whole month's income for someone.

What about foreigners? The problem with foreigners is not disease, not treatment, or cost, but fear, isolation, and not understanding the Thai bureaucracy.

Husband who has lived in Thailand for 30 years, understands the quirks, knows Thai work very well, speaks, reads, writes Thai, but never once used to going to the hospital.

I decided to apply for life insurance from my first year of marriage because I didn't have to rely on anyone and wanted to take care of my family to keep everyone from selling anyone. For 10 years, I followed the papers, talked to the doctor, contacted the insurer, checked the rights to be available, how to talk to the hospital for a discount. Most of the insurer customers didn't know what the medical expenses were discounted. Most of the bills came, they paid that way. This is what I had the advantage to protect my family. My husband and family had the only duty to take the drugs home.

One day when he has to go to the hospital himself, talk to the doctor, according to the papers, may get bipola instead, because things seem tricky, there are obstacles. Communication that he thinks Thai people may understand, no one understands. Thai people do not speak English at all, especially difficult to explain. He does not understand what to wait, what steps to wait, why is it slow? No one tells, no one explains. He waits aimlessly. When going home, every time he goes to the hospital, he will ask to go with him as a friend every time to reduce the process of communicating with people.

And I don't feel alone in a foreign country. Men, even if they are brave, strong, are leaders, but sick in a foreign country, without relatives, people who understand the same language, all weak in heart, I understand this very well.

Thai wives, or those who are getting married, know that this is the real story that our future will face.
