Hi guys. Here's my diary for Thursday the 23rd.

woke up at around 3:25am when my phone beeped. I had forgotten to turn down the volume and switch it to vibration. When I saw the time, I decided to place the phone on charge. I did and then I remembered what woke me. When I checked the message, it was from my sister saying >help me I'm dying.

I quickly jumped up and sprinted to her room. When I entered, she was laying with tears in her eyes. Her face was red and swollen. Tears welled up in my eyes. I asked her what was happening but she could barely talk. She kept pointing to her head to signify she had a headache. It then hit me that she had complained of that before we went to bed.
I went into my room and rummaged through my cupboard to get some tramadol which I kept for such reasons.
I gave her 2 pills with some water and helped her sit up. She was also burning up with a fever.
The sight of she and my nephew on the bed so sick and lifeless broke my heart.

I went my parents' room to alert them of the situation. They joined me in my sister's room. We prayed for her and watched over her for a bit.
Later on, I got a towel and soaked in water, then placed on her forehead.

After that, we couldn't sleep. My mom and I went to the kitchen and started cooking since my sister who usually does it is sick.

I did the dishes and cleaned the kitchen. My brother later woke up and helped in making salad.
After that I went to bathe and I left for the shop.
I got to the shop at about 6:50 am. I wasn't feeling my usual self but I said a short prayer to God as I sat outside staring at the passing population of people.

I spent time watching YouTube comedy videos so that I could cheer up a little. Later on, I switched to getting updates in the entertainment industry. That's when I saw a post from Popnable.com which listed one song of Indira twice (as 2nd and 4th) of the top 100 most popular songs in Cameroon.

It annoyed me cause they are always very inaccurate with their listings. Yet they claim to take automated votes.
I left the site and decided to read a newly gotten novel in my phone. But just then, my brother came back from making his ID. He had finally succeeded. We talked for a while and my dad also came around. After talking to us about life, my dad left and we continued talking. I showed him some videos I had gotten on YouTube and we laughed. He got us some chicken. We are as we continued watching the videos.

At about 5pm, my bestie, Claire came to say hi. She was just passing by though. I used the opportunity to tease her about
new discovery I made concerning her. It was funny seeing her reaction.
I then went to see her off and we talked a little more before she took a taxi to her destination. I went back to the shop where I met my brother about leaving too.
When he did, I started listening to some music.
By 7pm, my mum joined me on her way back from a meeting. We parked and went home.
On getting home, I served food to everyone and went to make myself some eggs to eat with bread and some Lipton with a touch of lemon to enhance the flavor.
After eating, I said my prayers and went to bed.

Thanks for reading 😊

May God grant your sister healing mercies. Hope its not corona😬

U keeping emergency pills in your room have encouraged me to do same just in case. Thank you for this post and may God touch your sister and your nephew so all will once again be well

AMEN. Thanks a lot

Oh my! That was close, hope she's getting better already. These things that headache and stomach ache can sometimes disgrace someone . I remember once my dad left for work and my mom laid helpless in her room crying when I entered it was stomach ache. I thank God for prayer that after few secs of praying she got well.

I thought you'd say Panadol but I saw tramadol i was like what!!! Where did you get that from.

I pray her health be restored completely in Jesus name

Hahahaha. I once attended a "say no to drug misuse campaign some months ago". We had to sensitize youths on the use of tramadol and some other drugs and not to mis-use it given that it has hallucinating effects too. It is a 4th degree pain killer and is necessary for situations of extreme pain like that of my sister. I have Panadol and efferalgan for normal headaches but that my sister's case needed more.
Thanks for the prayers

🥺hope he recovers quickly, adrielitos very strong pikin

Omg. I really hope your sister is doing so much better now. Who took care of her for the rest of the day though?

Thanks for your concern. She is feeling much better. My dad took care of her. Thank God he is a nurse

I will be praying for your sister
