In Sickness

Gosh, Ric and i both fell sick yesterday, maybe of food poisoning. And thus were unable to receive my Sis from the airport last night.

I was slightly better off than him as i've always been blessed with a healthy stomach but he being a habitual gastric pain sufferer really had it once any viruses attack his stomach.

Weak limbs, bloated stomachs and all, i took this as a chance to shed off some weight :) But poor Ric was trying to cope with his job busy schedule while 'resting' home from gastric pain and giddiness.

At a time like this when our stomachs repel all oily food. We only had cravings for simple canned pickles with home-cooked porridge, our staple diet in all sickness.

And it's amazing how such modest food comforts our being in these weakest hours.

I'm much better today; breathing in and walking without much discomfort, it feels wonderful to be healthy once again. Keeping in mind that health was not to be taken for granted and to always sympathies with the sick.
