Coughing constantly and breaking out in cold sweats, the doctor said it was a bacterial infection. Western medicine didn't seem to help. This morning, Mom went out of her way to find some local herbal medicine, but I'm still not completely better. My head is swimming. I need to take a day off. I've really worn myself out recently, and my resistance is down. I can't fight off even a small illness. I need to rest and recover.
