Day 6: Pain returned...

Day 6 - Tuesday, March 27

Since I felt really okay last night, I rendered overtime at work until 7am (my shift was 9pm-6am), took a nap and woke up at 8:30am.

Yey! I went to CCF Eastwood for Nadene's surprise! Herald and Lester bought food for the ladies - me, Jayzel and of course, Nadene. I tried eating, it felt normal. I had ice cream, chocolate cake, belly Bangus and spaghetti. I didn't try to eat Bicol express because it's spicy, I was afraid it might sting my throat. I also didn't eat rice.
I got home at around 1:30pm. I freshened up and went to my nephew's graduation ceremony, to which my sister works as a teacher and was the program host that day. Then we went to KFC to have some snacks as a family - my brother Ato, Sharon, the kids: Amber, Ayah, and Curt of course, who just graduated, Nanay and Tatay. They had the best food in the world, CHICKEN. I knew I couldn't eat chicken. I just had mushroom soup, mashed potatoes, and spaghetti.

I went home, took a nap and when I woke up, the pain was 8/10. Soooo painful that I couldn’t get up. No more pain killer today, so I took biogesic instead - which was even too hard to swallow. I wanted to shout but, that was too dramatic so I didn't. I knew I couldn’t go to work. I did not force myself to. I just notified my manager.

I tried to sleep, but the pain kept waking me up... Prayer relaxed me. I read my Bible and focused on God’s love. 

Tomorrow was supposed to be another surprise birthday for Nadene, with our D-12, which I was forced to cancel. I was sad. I wanted to see my ladies, but I just couldn’t.

Biogesic helped relieved the pain. But not for long. Pain woke me up again in the middle of the night, I took another biogesic, prayed and forced  myself to sleep. I knew tomorrow things will get better.
