I was only thinking a few weeks ago how long it had been since I’d been ill. Oh, the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune – for, within days, I was knocked flat by Covid-19, like it was 2020 all over again.
Fast-forward four more days, and I had just about enough energy to walk upstairs – with little rests along the way. I also had a cough that made me bend double through wheezing, hacking fits, a streaming nose, sore eyes, a headache and a constant temperature – you know, the type where your skin feels so sensitive to touch that even the insides of your ears, hurt? That.
