I don't really get sick very often but when I do, I'd suffer a lot.
.
Last Thursday, I went to work feeling a little weak. I had a lot to do at work and decided to finish everything before I succumb to collapsing.
.
By 9.40am, I was just too weak to even think, so I left the office. I had cold sweat and was feeling weaker by the minute. Driving back was a long torture. The moment I arrived home, I collapsed onto my bed (err.. it was super hot, I made time to switch on the air-cond and fan)
.
By 11am, I was still feeling weak and knew that I needed more than an hour's worth of rest. So I slept until 11.30am.
.
Feeling groggy, I went back to work. I lasted only 1 hour before I felt terrible again. I just couldn't focus on anything at all. It was then that I decided that I needed to take a day off to rest.
.
I left the office for the second time that day.
.
I called dear hubby, told him my condition and asked him to pack a MacDonald's porridge for me. He was kind enough to oblidge, despite his heavy schedule.
I went back and guess what? Cars were everywhere. Parents were waiting for their children just outside the school. And the bad news is, I couldn't even ask the drivers to remove their cars from the road fronting my house ... simply because they were not in.
These two Wiras blocked my gate
.I went further and parked my car elsewhere.
.Once again, the moment I reached home, I collapsed.
Dear hubby came back a little later with my lunch. Yummy!!!I was feeling super hungry by that time because I fasted in the morning.
.
He even drove my car into the porch area later. So sweet of him, yeah?
.
By 2.30pm, I was feeling a lot better and very much wide awake. I decided to make full use of my leave (I didn't see a doctor and will be applying for emergency leave) by making a birthday card for dear hubby, going to the Socso Office and to church to see what can be salvaged from last year's Kidz Safari.
.That night, I went for class and even though I didn't feel 100% well, I enjoyed the class and was able to absorb what was being taught.
.
In hind sight, falling ill forced me to take a break from work PLUS allowing me to get all the errands done. :)
