Yes! I'm Still Alive!

After a week of being confined to my room, I'm still alive! Yes I am!

It’s been one hell of a week for me. Hell!!! As in hell talaga!

I was hoping that Monday would be better, but I was wrong. It was a lot worse and it was only the beginning. I woke up with a massive headache. It was like my eyes where going to pop out from their sockets and my jaw felt like their going to drop every time I open them. Advil became my new bestfriend. I was popping them every 4 hours. It was crazy. Until Ate Lita asked Tita Ampy to call Dr. Adarna for a home service. I couldn’t walk or talk that much… All I wanted was sleep and hope that by the time I wake up it would all just be a bad dream. But the pain made it all real. Really real and unforgettable.

Dr. Adarna gave me two more medicines to take care of the side effects of mumps kasi I’m too old na daw to have them and the last thing we wanted to happen was for side effects to occur. He even asked me if I were pregnant. Masama daw sa buntis could result daw for the baby to develop a hole in its heart. Kaya ako naman kahit dinedesmenoriya na, eh nagpabili kagad ng EPT, just in case lang naman. But even before the single line appeared, I knew I wasn’t pregnant. He also told me to go easy with Advil. Every six hours lang ang take and that’s for three days only… Huwwaaatt!!!??? Nalokah ako! Huhuhu!!! Hindi ko ata kaya yun. Naging dependent na daw ba! Hahaha!

I was a walking zombie for five days. I wasn’t eating well… Heck! I was just eating so I could take my medicine but parusa talaga! Parusa na ngumuya at kumain. Pero hindi pwede. I didn’t cry though. I was frustrated and mainitin ang ulo. Maski si Jet napaginitan ko maski walang sense. And speaking of Jet, Thursday is our day. He was frustrated too na hindi kami magkikita ng Thursday kasi daw he got used to seeing me every week, ano daw ba gagawin nya that day. I told him nalang to clean his room or do his laundry or anything just to keep his mind off me. So ako naman, wala akong magagawa. Dahil ayoko namang ipilit na magkita kami because I’m afraid naman for him at baka mahawa sya.

So Thursday came, I received a call from him before 7am. Sabi nya he was on his way home dahil hinatid daw nya brother nya. Ako naman, dahil inaantok pa, ok sige… And I went back to sleep. Aba! After 15minutes eto na! He came barging into my room! I was surprised! Hahaha! I mean grabe! Hindi ko talaga ineexpect na he would do that. Risk his health just to see me. He brought me flowers and mangoes. Really sweet of him. Well except for the part when he saw me… Napaatras talaga sya at ngumiwi ang mukha nya. Hahaha! I should have taken a picture of him when he saw me. Priceless talaga! Ayaw na pumasok sa room ko. Natakot ata! Hahaha! Kamukha ko daw yung villain sa Spawn. Yung clown daw… Ako naman, I’m thinking, I look like Shrek.


We had breakfast together, although ako nakaupo sa table at sya nasa may counter malayo from me. But I was contented seeing him there. Sabi nya bad naman syang boyfriend kung hindi nya ako dadalawin. He stayed for an hour. No kisses or hugs just flying kisses that the angels found amusing. Pinagtawanan nila kaming dalawa, corny daw namin. Hehehe! Really appreciated what he did. I just hope he didn’t catch anything. God! I really hope so.

After his visit medyo okay okay na ako. Come Friday, my mumps gone na talaga. But Friday night, I found myself with fever. I was burning up again with a 38.9 temperature. I was using two blankets and still I was feeling cold. I was taking Biogesic every 4 hours and yet hindi ako pinagpapawisan. Nakukulam na ata ako ah. Saturday morning… (today) I was little bit hopeful na mawala na talaga. By lunch time pinagpawisan na ako and my fever was gone. My appetite is not that okay yet. Every time I eat something parang gusto ko syang isuka. It’s like I’m looking for a certain taste or type of food but I don’t know what it is.

By far this is the only experience na talagang sinusumpa ko. I don’t want to go through it anymore. If you have a chance, get yourself a vaccine and your children too. Grabe ang paghihirap talaga. Even my sister was surprised. She told me I already had my vaccine against it and I already had them before.

That’s life. By Monday I know everything will be okay. Start of a new week for me.
