I have heard many times, that chicken pox is a mild disease, a classic childhood ailment which allows the kid to stay off school for a couple of weeks. No one had told me that its not so simple for adults. I would have then taken the shot for sure.
Well, it started off quite promising, a mild feverish feeling a couple of cute red spots, 'One week at home to work on my small project', thought I. Boy, was I wrong.
In a day I developed a high fever, that was foolishly delirious, and my whole body was covered in blisters.
By day too, fever got worse and blisters started growing their own blisters.
Day three, I'm dreamt that I am a child bursting bubble wrappers, but actually I was breaking blisters on my head one by one.
Day four, I couldn't swallow food or open my eyes fully. I thought about the minority that developed serious complications. I cried, partly deliriously, I love my life very much, I love the laughter and the tears.
Day five, the army of blisters slowly started to recede. Or at least lost their aggressiveness.
I still look quite scary, but I am relieved that I can sit up straight.
