It was my first year at the University of the East when TB ailment hit me. That was the year when I first started traveling on a long distance just to go to school so I was constantly tired then, which is why the TB infection easily got into my system. Those were the longest six months of my life. It was the first time that I had a serious health problem, and I felt so much love from my family while I was going through that phase. Luckily, I was treated before the disease got worse. It did not enter my mind until now that I have dormant TB infection that is just waiting for my immune system to weaken before it attacks again.
I think most of you know that Paul has not been here for almost three months now, and in the span of time that he wasn't here, I am everyday struggling with the responsibilities of taking care of Svet while working while housekeeping at the same time. Since we have no house help, this constant whirlwind of activity has taken its toll and for the last three days, I have been having fevers during the afternoon and I have lost weight already. I am still monitoring if this will continue for the next two days, and off to the doctor I'll go so he could check if my hunch is true.
Although it is not confirmed yet, I am now fearing for my child's safety. I pray so hard every night, I hope I am wrong. I don't want her to be suffering the same disease in such a young age. My heart is in constant anxiousness of what tomorrow or the day after that will bring. Please, this is the first time that I am going to ask this from you. Please pray for me.

My heart breaks for you, for I know this is taking such a toll, both emotionally and physically. You are such a sweet thing and God will see you through whatever happens, good news or bad. You will have a stregth you never knew you had. He has plans for you that you are not even aware of yet. Take heart, Friend. There are many who care. XXOOXXO
Hi Kaye
You are in my thoughts and prayers
Hugs

I'll pray for you. Eat lots of Balut (I heard it's good for the lungs, seriously). You'll get over it soon with proper treatment so don't worry. But take care of yourself too! Hey, I love reading your posts. They are very informative (and grammatically clean!)compared to many!!!
I hope it's just fatigue. Please go visit a doctor soon. Our body has a way of telling us when something is not okay and follow the doctor's advice.
Hi Kaye....
You got my prayers! I hope you're doing much much better na. It's also good to hear [read] that your h is back home with you.
Do take care always. I think getting an 8-hr job is a good thing to at least give you some kind of a schedule while getting paid.

I can just feel how worried are you. I got to read the next entry to know the result. do take care
I am like you always anxious of tomorrow
health check up here cost USD$120
it is better go for health check up, I know its costly but at least you know the result.
having a check up once in a while would help, don't forget na importante rin ang health kaya hwg masyadong wahmaholic. hehe
nagyon ko pa to nabasa marce..hope this episode of your life makes you more vigilant in making your health a priority amidst your hectic schedules...
have you gone to the doctor marce for exam? ganoon talaga yong TB, it crawls for those who are weak kaya ako i try to minimize my time sa blog bec. health is wealth..minsan kasi palagi akong napawisan and minsan i forget to change kasi nabusy kacocoment..he..he...
time management and discipline is needed for us marce...my heart breaks for you marce at this time that you work, take care of Svet and do household chores at the same time...
over here the teachers will need to get health test first before they can teach the kids.
yeah better check up for the TB.
health is number 1 then 2nd family, 3rd career.
being parent is not easy, my mom is housewife
or this way health first then career as need of money to support family.
