after ordeal gratitude

the general feeling is one of lethargy. the lack of

energy is draining the sap out of me. i’m very much

aware that i won’t die of my condition. i’m very much

aware that there are people who are much sicker

than me. as my friend pointed out, in this relative

world, i should take comfort in the fact that there are

others who are in much deep shit than i am [hehe, i

could not remember the words verbatim - but that

was the gist of it]. well, i recognize the truth in her

words, but sometimes exhaustion just kicks in.

currently, i have a mind that is very much willing to

fight and emerge victorious, yet my body is

screaming for everything to just stop - the

headaches, the intermittent pain - the blood flow. it’s

weird why i’m feeling them now when i’ve no reason

to. i’m already into my 7th day of withdrawal

bleeding, and from 12 soaked pads a day, i’ve

reduced to just 5. i also stop popping painkillers 

today to test if i can go through the motions of my

everyday life without depending on them. so far, i’m

not feeling any pain in my pelvic area, just the nasty

headache. everything is looking good, yet i can’t

successfully convince myself that i’m hundred

percent fine. i blame it on my pale lips. haha, i’ve

bitten them several times today but it only works for

a few minutes and them lips are back to being pale.

i guess, i should avoid mirrors today and cross my

fingers that nobody would comment about them

being pale…hehe, people - i have to shed off my

very thick uterine lining - every inch of those lining,

thus - the too much blood discharge and yeah, the

pale lips…

anyway, pale lips aside - i wish to thank all the

friends i bothered the past few days. believe me

guys, your indulging my “thinking aloud” messages

helped me get through my pain. achinette kong, i’m

thankful that i finally listened to you to go see your

doctor. she was truly a great help as she’s the first

doctor i’ve had in years whom i can call or text when

my symptoms are at its worst. thanks also to the one

who causes pain and pleasure for talking nonsense

to me and for introducing jamal malik. hehe, it sure

was a great distraction and a tremendous help. let

me apologize also for doing the wrong thing one

night. i just didn’t know better.
