The other day, a classmate of mine was coughing a whole lot. Like, coughing fits. Like, obviously not healthy.
She got sent to the nurse, and before she left, I just sort of said "Heyyy...if they put you on antibiotics, let me know, because I'll probably have to take them too."
Turns out I have to take antibiotics for whooping cough/bronchitis..even though I don't have it!
Funny how that works out. Because of my surpressed immune system, I can't ever risk exposure to this kind of illness...this is the second time I've had to be medicated for this specific illness. The first time, I hugged a little girl who was diagnosed with it three days after. Freaked my oncologist out a TON. #cancerkidprobs!!
I can laugh about this a little, which I guess is good. It's funny how things work out like this. But its times like these that I remember: I'm sick. Illnesses like this are life threatening to me. It's like a bit of a wake up call, I suppose.
In the meantime, I've been stull juggling what to do about school, and have been working a lot of extra shifts (luckily because the hours they gave me without them are kinda crappy).
I turn 18 on Sunday. Is this real life?
I love you guys. <3
