Night 0 was great. The entire staff crew did a huge tie dye session with 7 colours and they had the giant swing running. The next morning I was starting to feel a bit tired and sick. I was told to take the day off and try and get better. My thoughts: this is great, first days at camp are always busy and hectic. Throughout day one I felt worse. Day 2 I started coughing and had multiple fevers and chills. Day 3 I slept even more, had another fever and was coughing like I was hacking up a lung. I have never slept more and been so knocked out from a cold and my leg is starting to lock up on me. I went to the walk in clinic in town, and they just closed, but the doctor that was there saw me, I was super thankful. He said that if I wasn't getting better than it wasn't a sinus infection, he gave me a stronger medication to cover more viruses/bacterial infections. Night 4 I have had the worst fever ever! I took some meds and jumped in a cold shower. I went to a dr the next day and he said it should take a few more days. COME ON! it is the 6 day I've been out of work. This Is RIDICULOUS. Anyways, so he sent me for a chest x ray and we haven't heard anything yet, which is good news. My cousin has some of the same symptoms, and we both got sick on the same day, she had a blood test and has MONO. So tomorrow, I think I am going to get that checked out. Hopefully to rule that out.
Its really sad, I have only been away for camp for 2 days and not working for 5 and I feel is distant and sad that I am not there during the last week of camp. This week had kids with physical disabilities and it was the week that I was looking forward to the most, to show the kids that they can do anything.
The following day I went to My cousins real doctor, he assessed, listened to me breath, and realised there was a problem with that. He thought it was my asthma acting up. I haven't had a puffer in years! I took two puffs in clinic and it was like magic. Right now I can take deep breaths. I still cough a bit, but I can breath. As the day progresses I continue to feel better.
