Dear Blog

Dear Blog,

How time flies! We just ended Christmas and now anticipating the onset of another year.

A quick update - I had been very sick. Never been so sick before. Had persistent high fever, viral infection, lymph infection and ultimately, drug allergy that made me looked swollen and like an alien. I am still on medication but I look really normal now.

I seriously had a system overhaul. At least I have to say, my skin is looking quite good even without any powder. This is one of the greatest consolations. And probably not quite sustainable (according to baby), I have lost quite a lot of weight. Haha.

Oh well. I can't say I am proud to be that sick. It was one of the most horrible experiences and needless to say, traumatizing when I saw myself looking like some alien was breaking through my skin. It was horrifying! I had swollen cheeks, hands, feet and itches. I did not have rough rashes but I had scaly-looking patches all over my body.

Now, I am back on my health, I need to do really get back in shape for my MT KK climb. I lost so much muscular strength and even walking in the malls tired me out. I felt shortness of breath and I got really exhausted. So, I need to get my fitness level up so that I could easily scale the mountain.

Till my next post, this is just an update on how glad I am to be well again. For the first time, I appreciate sitting in front of my computer typing things out with a clear mind. :) After almost 2 full weeks of being really sick, being able to sit here is really a joy.

To great health!!!
