what can i do

Dad's been feeling unwell for quite some time now
got some medications from the clinic for gastric pain
but he still hasn't fully recovered

despite countless persuasions from mom,sis and myself
he refuses to see the doctor
and kept dismissing it as gastric pain thats all
it pains me to watch him getting up time and time again
from his sleep due to discomfort

its making so worried about him that its frustrating
frustrated at why won't he just go for a checkup
does he not understand the pain in our hearts
the feeling of helplessness is just overwhelming

why won't he just heed our advice
why must you be so sturbborn!
why can't you understand
what can i do
what can i do as a son
who just wants to help
