Sick - Part 2

I woke up feeling like crap.  I had a horrible night.  I tossed and turned all night and when I woke up and saw my bed sheets, and as I told Yonseili, it was as if there was a war on my bed.  I was soooo hot.  I remember going to sleep at 9:30 and then when I woke up thinking it must be really late.  Actually, it was 10:44.  I knew immediately it would be a long night.

For breakfast I had cereal and banana by myself because my host family went out somewhere.  I showered, got ready and later for lunch I went with my host mom and bro to El Pacifico where I had caldo de gallina.  Wow, it was a huge bowl and I didn't finish it.  I wasn't feeling too well yet, and I was hoping the soup would help, but it really didn't.

We went home and I stayed there while my host mom and bro went to a friend's house.
All day, Yonseili couldn't connect to the internet, so basically we didn't work on our homework at all.  I didn't feel good and I had a bit of a fever (it kind of went up and down all day) but by the end of the night and after eating the chicken soup that she gave me and the tea, I felt tons better.  Martica joined us for dinner because she also wanted soup.  She hadn't had some in a while; soup's good for everyone.  I knew I'd be having a good night.  Then, we had another meal later.  Carlos brought pizza for us.  Mushrooms and ham.  I took two slices.

By the end of the night I did feel better.  My body was sore and pain went from my neck to my jaw to my chest.  As far as the fever, I think it helped to put on a face towel on my forehead that I soaked in cold water.  My mom taught me that.  I went to sleep.

Highlight of the day: I got better, yay!
