Sick

Tweet

I was sick since yesterday. I had 2 cups of chocolate cappuccino for 2 consecutive mornings, and I have had stomach upset and loose motions. Coupled with that is the erratic weather here again; it is back to cold and windy day since yesterday after the very hot Thursday and Wednesday that is why my body cannot easily adapt to the sudden change of climate. So sick was I that we did not go to the ward yesterday. Instead, I told my 5 students that they have to do their assignment like their reflective statements and sample nurses’ notes at the third floor. I had to constantly go to the restroom because I had the urge to defecate but there was none. The borborygmus was even heard by one of my students. I said I was hungry but I feared I will have another bout of loose motions. Dinner came and I had the egg porridge but I was not able to consume it. So, I bought a bottle of Gatorade to hydrate myself. I think I can handle myself. I had fever yesterday until last night. I hope to get well and my appetite be restored.
