Still Sick

So I’ve been jabbing at my phone, canceling appointments and plans for the afternoon. I’m still sick; the medicine just isn't working.

Last night my headache was so bad I could not think. If I needed to read or listen to my own thoughts, I knew that had to wait until I'm well again. Instead I was twisting in my sheets and fighting nausea.

I thought the fever had subsided when I woke up to drink some water around midnight but my temperature rose up again. So today I miserably succumb to the confinement of my room.
