Step closer so that I can see with whom I am speaking…
Nothing like your back hurting with every breath you take. Nothing like not being able to breathe out of your nose, therefore causing you to chew obnoxiously so that you can breathe through your mouth while eating. No, nothing beats coughing violently for days and days, rattling your internal organs and leaving your throat raw. And I know you all miss those days when your throat was so sore, it made you cry if you breathed the wrong way. Also, the days where your nose resembled Rudolph but in a more flaky way, as a result of too much blowing. What about feeling hot and cold at the same time but having no fever? Oh and we can’t forget about the coughing up a little blood, but just that once. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I am there. In that horrible land of “sick” that no one ever wants to visit. And on top of all of the above, I’ve had diarrhea twice and have to make trips to the bathroom every 10 minutes to piss. Thank God I haven’t puked yet though. {knocks on wood}
