That was my lesson to my little T2 this morning when she joined me for my daily fitness class at the gym. She has been kept home this week because she contracted her sister’s virus from last week. There has been a bad respiratory virus making its rounds of late. T1 got it and had an asthma attack in the middle of the night. Rushed her to Pantai Hospital A&E where they administered a nebuliser immediately. Thereafter, they wanted to infuse paracetamol into her drip and I said what the hell for? She didn’t have a fever??? The nurse who was about to inject the paracetamol into T1’s hand insisted that she had a fever. I KNEW my daughter didn’t have a fever. I am experienced in ‘feeling’ for fevers especially when she said her fever was very high at 42 degrees Celsius. Are you kidding me? If that was really the case, she would be burning hot and probably on her way to an epileptic fit. She was not even mildly warm. I commanded the nurse to bring a thermometer to check her in front of me and she huffed away to get it and when she did check her temperature, T1 had NO FEVER AT ALL.

To think they were about to wrongly administer paracetamol into my daughter’s drip? What the hell??? Where are these nurses from???

Which is why it is paramount that we maintain ourselves so healthy that we never ever have to step close into a hospital where your life is at someone else’s disposal, I kid you not.

The Doctor wanted to admit T1 because her lungs were pretty chesty and with asthma, it could go either way but I refused admission because quite honestly, I am so tired of Doctors and hospitals and will only use them when I am dying. Anything before, I’m much happier taking full control of our own well being. So we got a host of medications of which I ALSO declined because why the hell do we need so much medication for? To grow pharmaceutical companies of course. No thanks. We went home and the next day, I brought her to the local clinic for another round of nebulisers and within a week of hydrogen water and carotenoids, she was fine. Me, however caught the worst sore throat ever from the hospital. It must have been the hospital because the symptoms was different from what T1 had and I did not have a chesty cough like her but mannnnnn, it was the most painful sore throat I had ever had in my entire life!!! I could not talk and I could not swallow and I was agonising in pain!!!

I took 5 packets of my trusty hydrogen water that day and the next day, I woke up with ZERO pain. The sore throat had completely vanished. I am not kidding. It was Strep Throat. There were white lumps in my throat. Wow!!! I never knew how painful a Strep Throat would be. Shit!!! But amazingly too, that a very painful sore throat left within a day. Even I am incredibly impressed.

This virus that is going around lasted a week for T1, a day for me, a week for T2 and a day for the Hubs. Why? Because the Hubs and I are obviously stronger as we take our health boosters being hydrogen water and vegetable carotenoids daily, or almost daily. Whereas the kids? Haizzzzz…..we have to keep reminding them and now that they have fallen sick after so long of not being sick, I will make it my priority again to remind them to be regular since they eat so little vegetables, hardly enough to kill any parasites within. If they ate sufficient vegetables then no problem, but they don’t. Boohoohoo.

After our exercise class together on the way back home, I reminded T2 how important exercise was daily so that our body gets STRONG, our brain gets SMART and our soul is always HAPPY. And it really works!!! I was feeling so mopey yesterday and down yet after the workout today, I feel much, much better. Perhaps because there is already resolve to take a 2 month break from work and I have already started not caring. I had a lovely 3 hour massage yesterday and the Hubs recommended that I go for another today and another tomorrow before I leave the country for my working holiday again with the girlies.

Life is good again!!!
