Pneumonia

Well, with all of the mental and physical infirmities that my family members possess, I have always thought that I was appreciative of my health. However, over the past two weeks, I have gained an appreciation I never knew was possible. As some of you are aware, I have had pneumonia for almost two weeks now. I had no idea it was possible to feel so rotten. After running a fever of over 102 degrees for nearly a week, the aching in my body was unfathomable. "Medicine" was not able to bring my fever below 101 during that time. Also fun is coughing up chunks of bloody mucus. The good news is I'm on the upward swing! I am feeling better though I am easily wearied. When I am back to 100%, I will be on cloud nine to say the least.
