Does anyone else self doubt when they are feeling ill?
Right now I feel like my head has taken on Neanderthal shape; it hurts, it’s foggy and all I want to do is grunt at people and stick a pointy stick into a bee hive to get honey big jar of honey to try and soothe my throat The fact my throat hurts isn’t a good sign… normally I avoid sore throats since I had my tonsils ripped out. If I’ve still got a sore throat this could be a major lurgy coming to take me down.
All the time, however, there’s this little voice moaning at me, telling me I’m pathetic and that if I just tried then I would feel much more awake. Annoyingly, there’s a voice on my other shoulder which is convinced that I’d feel better if I went and raided the sweetie box in the kitchen. It’s probably right.
Most people have an angel and a devil on their shoulders. I have a school nurse and a sweet shop owner.
