Recently my dad complains of back pain, he has positive chronic cough as well. I advice him for consultation. We already agreed we will have to appoint for his private Physician. Days later, he changed his mind says he's totally fine and the pain is bearable. But I was the only one who kept on insisting him that he really needs a medical attention. I knew it that he was afraid of knowing the truth afraid of being treated cause he can't quit his vices. I never missed on telling him to please quit smoking, drinking liquor all the time but then he never listen to me to my mom to anybody. I wonder why he's behaving like that. Is he not afraid of death? Is he ready to whatever may happen to him? Or he has useless life to end?

It sounds to me as if it's just habits he can't kick or doesn't want to try to kick. He does need to go to the doctor and find out what they say. It may not be as bad as he thinks, but it could be much worse if he waits. I hope that you can convince him.

Being a dad known for being the strongest person in the family sometimes they don’t want there family to sees them as the weakest. They prefer to show how tough they are even how hard for them to show. But for your dad I think he really need a health advise for him to stay with your family and live with life.
