Jones is usually the hustling and bustling fellow. Always busy with work...a never a full moment fellow. His peers used to mock him by calling him a "Jackie". Such was his lifestyle.
Jones chosen trade is a strenuous type, metal work and welding. He loves his work so.much and does it with passion. He is always seen in his workshop either bending a metal or welding it. This ensures that he is always in a bending posture. Friends and family have advised him to take it easy with work but Jones will not listen. He has 5 solid children, the wife and other dependants to carter for; too many mouths to feed from his chosen career.
Jones is also an early riser. He normally wake up before 5:30am in the morning to do his normal morning devotion first before his wife and children join him by or shortly after 5:30am for the family morning prayers. On this eventful day, Jones failed to wake up at his usual time. The wife decided not to bother him. At least let him have some decent sleep today. But by 5:30am she tried to wake up the husband from sleep. Jones woke up quite alright but was surprised that he had woken up slightly late. He stood up from the bed and suddenly he felt some snap at the hip joint. The snap was very painful and he had to shout and beckoned on the wife for support. Like an old man Jones was led to a nearby sofa wherein he sat down albeit with great difficulty.
The shout and noise raised by Jones made all the children to wake up from their sleep with each telling Jones sorry. Soon a car was arranged and with great pains Jones was led into the car and they headed to the hospital. At the hospital Jones was admitted and billed for a scan and some couple of tests in the next hour. The scan was done alongside other tests and the results expected in the next 2 hours. His wife and children waited patiently with Jones whining and grinning in pains on the hospital bed.
When Jones scan and test results came out it did not look to good. Jones was diagnosed of having broken one of the hip bones and a result of constant bending and carrying of heavy materials. Traces of peptic ulcer also seen in his system. Jones broke down in tears. He was however assured of a medical solution to his problems and treatment to be commenced with immediate effect.
