Introduction:
Well, I generally keep very good health, and I do not get sick often, but I can never forget the time when I was badly sick.
When it was?
Actually, what happened one day I came back from school, and I was feeling a bit fever, but it got worse rather, and my parents took me to the doctor’s clinic, from their laboratory test or my blood test.
It was revealed that I’m suffering from Pneumonia and for that, I had to be on bed rest for the next at least 2 weeks.
What exactly happened?
It was a very tough time for me because I had to take a lot of medicine, and I couldn’t go to school because of a high fever. Fortunately, my mother was there, who took great care of me, she was nursing me during this period, and taking care of my diet as well as medicine, she made sure that I take the medicine on time because I had to take the medicine at least 3 times a day.
My elder sister also brought me a medicine box, in which I could keep the medicine as per the day and the time. Unfortunately, one of the medicine started to show some side effects, because of that I was suffering from severe headache, and I had to consult the doctor once again and at that time he prescribed me a different drug that would suit me, and finally, after 2 weeks I recovered out of that. The credit goes to the medicine and nursing of my parents and my sister.
You recovered out of it? and Conclusion:
Overall, it was a very tough time for me, but with the support of everyone, I recovered from that disease.
