Saturday I went to W.P. trials (that blog post will appear once I get the final scores and the names of the schools that we played). I played 3 full games and by the end of it I had a very sore chest. Me being an idiot I forgot to bring my asma pump. Mrs Knox being not an idiot had brought one. I used that a few times. Then yesterday when Tamlin came over I was hacking and coughing the whole time. We joked about how I couldn’t leave her at school alone and it was very funny. I went to bed with this painful cough and a huge headache. I couldn’t sleep with the cough and had not rested or even dosed until one o’clock when I finally managed to fall asleep. Not for long though. All I remember is then being in the bathroom. Feeling very dizzy. I was wondering how I got there and I was still very confused. I staggered (yes, staggered like drunk person) to my bed where the only way to describe how I got into bed is: PLOPPED. So I plopped into bed face down. I slept a little more. Then at 6:30 mom came in to see if I was fit to go to school. I wasn’t. I wasn’t even fit to go to the doctors in my opinion. So I stayed home. I slept on and off for a while when mom came in awhile later she told me that she had made a doctors appointment for 11:00. I slept again, on and off. She then woke me up again at 10:30. I wasn’t so much as dizzy now but…Heavy. I felt like every time I brought my foot up I was also bringing up a ton of bricks. I bathed and got ready. We were there dead on time (of course). I then nearly fell asleep in the waiting room as we watched every single old-foegy in Fish Hoek go before me. I was practically drooling on mom’s arm when Dr. Henry called me. For such a long wait it was a very depressing examination. The minute I walked in he asked me what my symptoms were. Told to sit on the bed take some deep breaths. Put his bright pink Disney Princess thermometer under my tongue. I nearly refused to put it under my tongue, but to be honest I wasn’t in the mood. He then wrote out both my mom’s and my sick letters gave me some anti-biotics and told me that I had the beginnings of bronchitis. He added that I must stay home tomorrow aswel. Yay, more school missed. I think I’ll go crazy because I actually like school!
