| Feeling sick |
| Posted on 01/11/04 at 03:30 by NGONGE |
When I woke up this morning, I felt real sick. I felt dizzy. I almost suffered from a blackout as I got out of bed! I steadied myself by leaning on the wall for a couple of seconds. I slowly moved my hand away from the wall and moved my left leg forward. Thats when my illness was confirmed; I usually move my RIGHT leg first. I slowly walked to the toilet. Five minutes later, I got there and held on to the door, taking deep breaths. I wanted to go back to bed, sleep and feel better again. The bed was too far away!
I picked up my toothbrush and started lazily brushing my teeth. The feeling of giddiness got worse. I stopped. I rinsed my mouth. As I was bending down rinsing my mouth, I heard a rumbling sound come from my stomach. The noise got louder. I had thunder in my stomach and lightning in my eyes but I heroically held off the rain. I ran to the toilet seat, I stumbled then got up. I felt like vomiting. I tried to run back to the washbasin. The pain in my stomach got worse. I panicked. All these feelings were putting huge pressure on my already fragile nervous system. Shutdown was imminent. What if I fainted, started leaking from both sides and was then found by my mother-in-law? Which side would she start wiping first? I thought of my friend who really hates his mother-in-law and wondered if he would have loved to swap places with me! I thought of DEATH. What if this was it? I didnt like the idea of dying like a burst water balloon. Told myself to get a grip. Steadied myself and put my right leg forward....
I hereby instruct you all that in the event of me fainting while on this site, you should secure the premises and call my mother.
