Dealing with sickness

Helpless. More than 10 years ago, I was down with an illness that took me a year to recover. I have to be strong during that trying time. It was a tough sickness to deal with. I cannot work or do anything. It is the most helpless situation I was in at that time.

Only my loved ones are aware of my sickness. At that time in life, I with the support of my dearest brother pull myself through it. 

Recently, when I heard on the radio about the sickness, I cried. It hurts me the most to hear people mentioning the sickness. I remembered how tough it was. 

In life, we can control a lot of things, but there is one thing we cannot control. It is our health. I always believe being poor is alrite if one is not sick. Being rich and sick is worse than being poor. The worst part is being poor and sick. 

In life, when sick, one has to be strong for herself as no one can help her or feel the pain she is in.
