A sick man was about to die. The doctor decided¹ to tell him the truth.

 

He looked down at the sick man and said: "I think you would like to know the facts, so I should tell you that you are very sick now. Do you want somebody to come to see you?"

 

"Yes," the sick man answered in a very feeble voice. "Who is it?" asked the doctor. The patient replied in a slightly stronger tone, "Another doctor".

 

有个病人快要死了，医生决定对他讲实话。

 

他看着病人：“我想你会希望知道实际情况的，所以我应该告诉你，你已经病得很重了。现在你希望有什么人来看你吗？”

 

“有啊，”病人回答，声音十分微弱。医生问：“谁呢？”这时病人稍微重了一点的口气回答说：“另一位医生。”
