Illness sucks
Being ill sucks. I can't remember ever having a 40 degrees Centigrade fever, but now I know what it feels like. I went to work feeling very blah and having a huge cold on Monday. Then before it was lunchtime I decided I wanted to go home and get rest. This didn't work. And indeed: working with a 40 degrees Centigrade fever doesn't work. :-) The only thing I did this past week is sleep. Albert was there to wake me up, take my temperature, let me drink and eat something and give me some Hot Coldrex, which is a lot of Vitamine C and aspirin. He even went to his parents to get the airconditioning to get me to cool down. Really great, I'd been freezing cold the whole morning and in the afternoon I went up in flames.
The next day my fever dropped a little, but still I couldn't get out of bed. Yesterday I went to the doctor and he heard some noise in my lungs so I got antibiotics and finally after taking those and having some more sleep I felt a little better. Today I went outside for the first time this week. I thought it would do me good to go with Albert to the animal park. I didn't do anything besides walking around and looking at the animals, but that was still too much. I felt a bit dizzy and weak and when I got home, I wanted to go to sleep right away again. So I'm taking it really easy the rest of this week. I hate feeling this way so I hope I'll be totally better next week.
