Being Sick is No Fun!

>> Saturday, May 25, 2013

Getting sick is no fun. The worst sickness I have had in years is losing appetite in the middle of having "sinda" or that ailment where air runs crazily inside you causing much pain and discomfort, but doctors do not see anything on medical tests and procedures. No time to think about the best cigar or the best grilled barbecue or whatever it is that you may fancy because all you can think about is breathing without pain. From allergy attack after our week-long seminar, the month of May opened with me being sick, first allergy related, then it progressed to loss of appetite and ulcer at the same time---- with me paying the doctor more for what was never made better, and buying medicines for many different purposes... I was not only drained physically because of how I felt, I was also drained financially. But I didn't complain because somehow I have to survive. 

As with food, I have only been taking milk, for no food is acceptable, else I throw up. My sister was already worried because milk is not enough for the energy and health requirements of the body. I even reached the point where I found it difficult to move my knees, as they have weakened. The last time we went to the doctor, I asked to be on IV for dextrose as I feared I may lose it, but since my lab tests were okay, it didn't push through. More medicines were given for me to buy and I was advised what to eat. In frustration, my sister told me to get in touch with someone who sells Herbalife and we should buy the shakes---- and that's just what I did. With Herbalife shakes being added in my system, I felt better. I am now taking in food, though less but unlike the times I wanted to throw up, I can now take them in... My knees are okay now, and I am hoping to be okay for good. More fruits and vegetables in my diet will help a lot, I know. As with the "sinda", I called on a ventosa expert to help with the bad air, and I felt better. A little sacrifice with applying oils at night before sleeping and staying away from bad air from electric fans--- sometimes, it juts pays to sacrifice on these things because being sick is no fun!

The Little Chef






Since I got sick this month, Lili had been helping my sister with food preparation and even serving food to her sick mommy... I am grateful for all her efforts because she has asked to help. At an early age, she knows when she is needed, at the right time and place--- all for love. 

She makes sure that my food is ready all the time because the problem with my sickness at this time is my appetite. I have never imagined myself to lose appetite and not want to eat---- 


But thank heavens for two lovely persons in my life--- my sister Sweet and Lili--- who have sustained me with their acts of kindness and love.
