According to the narrator, the woman’s husband is doing his master’s degree programme so he could not afford to work and school at the same time.
She said the woman and her husband moved abroad together on student visa with the woman being the dependant.
But the husband refused to work for 20 hours, saying that he has to be studying for his msc degree.
This forced his wife to take up extra shifts so that she can meet up with financial demands of the family as the man was unable to cater for everyone.
Unfortunately, the nurse fainted while on duty and was rushed to another hospital. It was at the medical facility that the patient explained what happened to her.
