Every time my sickness gets validated by my company clinic, I'm not sure what I'm supposed to feel. Am I happy because I have extra days to rest? Am I sad because I am actually sick?
Yesterday, I played as my sisterful and her boyfriend's tour guide. The boyfriend hails from a far city in Romblon. That explains his fascination over Baguio City. Okay, I will not talk about him here. I'll make a separate post about him and our city tour.
Going back. Yesterday was a very hot and exhausting day. When it was almost evening, I already started feeling a headache. I was so tired and already not feeling well. I just had to wash Calli and put her in her peej. Then after a tablet of paracetamol, there was my zero-energy body on the bed with Calli.
When I woke up this morning, I felt energized again. I thought I was feeling better until I started sneezing and coughing like there's no tomorrow. The sneezing and coughing almost stopped until I could hardly breathe already. That's what happened all day which worsened earlier this evening. I ignored it because it was just Calli and me in the house. Elmer went to work. My sisterful and her boyfriend went out to the mall to do some shopping. I cannot not feel well whenever my daughters and I are alone in the house. Plus, I have work at 2AM tomorrow (or shall I say later because it's already 11:50PM).
But when my sisterful and her boyfriend arrived earlier at almost 9PM, breathing became more difficult. Good thing I was able to put Calli to sleep early tonight because she didn't have her afternoon siesta. I was thinking. Oh my G! This can't be happening. I'm having asthma attack again. Whenever I'm having an attack, I cry. I don't know why but I can't help crying every single time. I felt like I was dying. That's how I feel every time I'm having asthma attacks.
I decided that I drag myself to my company clinic. I was nebulized then I was already feeling so much better. Still, I was given a day of SL by my company doctor. He said I should REST.
And that explains why I'm still awake...and blogging. ^_^
Tomorrow, my sisterful and her boyfriend are leaving for Nueva Ecija. Guess who's going with them. A-huh! Calli! She's going on a week vacation. On my next rest days, I will fetch her from Nueva Ecija.
I'm sad because I'm sick. I'm happy for the extra day of rest. I'm sad because Calli's leaving mommy and daddy for a vacation. I'm happy because Calli's leaving and does not have to be near a sick mommy.
So there. I am sad and happy at the same time.
Mommies out there, be healthy for your kids, yes? Sick mommies out there like me now, let's get well.
Ciao!
There are always two sides. :D
ReplyDeleteMe too, I am asthmatic. I was happy I was absent for school because I have a reason to go away from stress. At the same time I am sad because I have to suffer another day with this illness.
I agree. School can be very stressful. But having an attack can also be and very tiring too. ^_^
