I missed school today (I teach).  I'm still feeling under the weather, still running a slight fever.  It was worst yesterday, which thankfully was a holiday(Oct.1-Ramadan) but the weather yesterday was really bad, a storm just hit Manila and by mid-morning I felt so bad  I was running a high fever.  I was chilling all over and was experiencing a bad case of phantom pains/chills....I was almost in tears as I have no control over  these phantom pains and I was sick... hopping back and forth to the bathroom didn't make the situation any easier...hopping just made me feel worse as I was out of balance, thankfully I have grab bars in the bathroom....now I regret giving away my forearm crutches......The sun is finally up today and the weather is back to being humid/tropical but I'm still in bed.....I couldn't get into my prosthesis because I'm still very weak...ugh....and it's discomforting to hop at the moment although I just plopped myself to a sofa to have a bowl of chicken porridge.....I just want to doze off....the lows of being sick and an amputee:(
