“Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.” --Redd Foxx
About once a year, I get knocked off my feet with a nasty cold or a sinus infection. I can always feel it coming on a day before—it’s both a blessing and curse.
On Saturday I went to visit my uncle in the hospital. I sneezed a couple of times while I was there. By the time I got home my nose was running. And by that night, my throat was scratchy. I knew Sunday was going to be ugly. I skipped church, slept in, and woke up with an awful cold. I stayed home all day, skipped a normal family engagement, and just made do. Yesterday wasn’t much better, but by the end of the day, I felt a little better. We’ll see what today brings.
I always dread sickness, but I will say this about it—it causes me to rest, whether I like it or not. And that’s not a bad thing.
