I feel bad, I have colds and it really got me though I'm ignoring it for few days now. Yesterday it got worst i have to take the advice of my friends to take it easy and rest.
I don't consider colds and flu as something i should take care of. I would just go around and do my normal things even if i got fever. Usually colds will take only 2 to 3 days for me to tackle with but this time its getting me and the worst my son got the virus from me too and had him skip school today!!! d--n!!!
What makes me feel so bad was last Friday was the interment of my best friend's husband. I really wanted to be there for my friend Helen but some old folks told me.. its not good for someone who is sick to attend funerals. It could worsen and it could lead to death....waaahhhh i don't know where this superstitious belief came from but it kinda scare me... what if its true mmmmm i decided not to risk going anyway not only of the superstitious belief but of the scorching heat that could be fatal for my colds... that surely could lead to something bad for me..
Helen's story is so interesting.. as i had written in my blog few months ago, her husband had bone cancer surgery. He had been totally bedridden for more than 2 years and the worst was , he couldn't move any part of his body. He was a total vegetable and Helen was with him all thru those days he was suffering. They had spent millions of money for hospital bills. I remember Helen telling me one time I had ask her how she could take it all.. she just recited to me this phrase... "For better or for worst for richer and poorer... til death do us part" then I knew LOVE can be a very amazing thing. I remember how beautiful and pretty she was when she was wedded to her husband 20 years ago and was so in love i thought that could be a never ending love story for them.
Last few months, Helen had surgery for myoma while her husband was at home and cant do anything to support her in the hospital as he was bedridden. I had to volunteer assisting her. I am a person who would faint if i see and smell blood but that time i knew she needed me so i had to rally up my courage and be there right outside the operating room. When i saw her being brought to the recovery room and saw her pale and unconscious, all blood was drained from me. i sat at the couch and feel myself about to faint. I ask the nurse how long she had to stay in the recovery room and the nurse told me she had to stay for 2 hours there before she will be brought to her room. So the nurse told me to wait in her room until she is brought there and this relieved me coz i really need to lay down, i feel I'm ready to faint. The nurse must have sense that!!
I feel so sad when i remember the last time i had chatted with her husband. He was so full of hope even in his situation. He was hoping for a miracle and it really squeezed my heart. So many times Helen had to run away from him to hide the tears in her eyes. She is a very strong woman.
Love can endure it all, and love can conquer all. Relationships cant last forever... but love surely can last beyond forever.
Anyway, I have to run but before i go i want to greet all mothers..."HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY" Some mothers are kissing mothers and some are scolding mothers.. but it is love just the same.. and most mothers kiss and scold together... HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all kissing and scolding moms out there.
HAVE A NICE DAY EVERYONE!!!
