For the last 2 days. I've actually been missing school due to the fact that some sort of disease caught up on my immune system and has now caused me to be bed ridden and unable to function properly as a whole. My entire body feels weak and tired due to the fact that I am sick. Funny thing is, I've been in bed all day for the last two days and my body still feels this way.

My grandmother actually made me some homemade remedies that actually helped ease down the fever I had a couple of nights ago. She took old cloth and ginger and she boiled down the ginger into liquid and placed the liquified ginger onto the cloth and placed it on my head and on my back. Surprisingly, she mentioned that this would ease down the fever and the headaches because it would absorb it all. In the end, it worked! But I wasn't fully healed, it would still keep coming back, but I had Advil and what not to supplement all of that.

I wanted to work so bad on all of the errands I had to work on. Such as homework and studying, but I had no energy whatsoever to do so. Today, I feel 10 times better than I did 2 days ago and it was all thanks to the orange juice, the rest, and the medications I have taken.

Missing school for a day sucks enough. But for 2 days straight is even worse. The day I return is like reliving my first day of school here in America again. I'm clueless. Majority of the time is because my teachers are already going through material that is way different than the material we went over 2 days before.

So next time I share food with my friends, I really should keep in mind as to if that person I share with has had a history of being sick within the past few days.
