I have had high fever for five days already, since Sunday. On Tuesday midnite, the doctor insisted on a blood test, and I was confirmed dengue positive! OMG, dengue? How and where could I have possibly got it?? ;-C
I have not been sick for quite sometime, alhamdulillah. And when I got it this time, the pain was so unbearable. My head was pounding and all my joints were aching so badly at first. I did exactly what the doctor told me to do; take some vitamins and plenty of water. As plenty as 4 LITERS a day! Ooohh, that's so much, but better than being held in the hospital! I had the previlege to opt to go home because my platlet count although below than normal, is still not too low. The doc said, they will just put me on drip (water) and check my platlet count from time to time if I'm admitted. So I said thanks and good bye to the doctor ;)
The 2nd blood test still showed the same result but doc said, it's under control and I could go home. Alhamdulillah... I need to be home as my Adam boy is also having fever. Poor little boy...
I take this as Allah's test on me. This is only a small test.In Surah Al-Anbiyaa:35, Ibn Abbas said about this verse: "We will test you with hardship and with ease, with good health and with sickness, with wealth and with poverty, with the halaal and with the haraam, with obedience and with disobedience and with right guidance and with misguidance - in order that we may establish how you have shown gratitude (for the "good" tests) and how you have remained steadfast (in the face of the "bad" tests)." And unto us you will return - so that Allah will reward each and every soul according to their actions.
Ya Allah, please pardon me. And please have mercy on me. Thank you Ya Allah, for during this period of sickness I came to realise how much love I have around me. And how much love I have given to my loved ones. I hope to be given the chance to give better before the time comes for me to return to you. Amin.
For now, I just need a good sleep..
