marti got dengue. and was in the hospital for seven days. we had to cart in people to donate blood for him (and out of a dozen, only three made it to the cut). but thank you so much for the people who came and almost came to donate! he is now home, lost weight and needing a bath, but better!
and yesterday, i literally got struck down with fever and flu-like symptoms while visiting the bro in the UST hospital with deus, rory and benj. seriously. i was in pain. i was feeling horrible nearly all week prior to this one but i never had a fever to go with it. to my embarassment, i burst into tears in front of my friends because i really couldn’t handle the pain anymore. my mom stuck a thermometer under my armpit to confirm, that yes, i had a fever.
we managed to get home with benj driving until makati and deus going home with me to imus to make sure i didn’t pass out on the road and crash my dad’s nice car. now, i’m sentenced to bed rest and lots of fluids, and round-the-clock medication.
but yeah. i need this rest. and when God saw that body ache wasn’t enough to stop me. He brought on the flu. so i will use this time to reflect on His Word, my life, and mapping out that new healthy lifestyle somebody’s been bugging me about.
ok. woozy now. bye.
