Wednesday I woke up not feeling so hot, with a sore throat. I got up and went about my business, but throughout the day I kept feeling worse and worse.
I came home and drank and entire litre of Orange Juice and a huge bowl of soup. Didn’t help. By night I was sporting a fever.
Thursday morning I woke up and could barely swallow, my throat was so swollen. I had brought back some Children’s Cough Syrup from the States for my youth center, so since it was the only thing I had around the house I broke open bottle one of the bottles and drank most of it. I also gargled warm salt water, which has helped in the past. Then I went back to bed.
I didn’t go to my Hebrew or Arabic class, and I really hate missing class. But it was necessary.
I pretty much just slept on and off all day, watched some Season 1 of Friends to help cheer me up, and read a little Max Lucado. And it helped.
Today I woke up without a fever. Without a sore throat. And with some energy. I feel better!
But I still hate being sick!

Being sick is never a great feeling, even as you start to get better.
I pray you feel better over the weekend
Blessings

Feel better. It really stinks, any way you look at it. Not fun at all.
Hugs to you!

Glad to hear you are feeling better! A nice day of tv and reading (no stress) goes a long way!

don’t wish being sick on anyone but it does make us appreciate our health more when we come back into the land of the living again. I’ve certainly been thankful for movement again without all the pain.
