The Spring Break Curse

Hey Readers,

It seems as if the past 2 Spring Breaks I've had do not go my way, at all. Last year when I got the battery of my pacemaker/defibulator replaced over Spring Break, I was supposed to be home in 2 days or so. Well things did not go as planned and long story short, I had complications the moment they put me under anesthesia and afterwards I was having a new kind of arrhythmia problem. 
Fast forward to this Spring Break, I was supposed to have a camp out tonight in my backyard and possibly see a movie tomorrow night with a bunch of friends. But my health really likes getting in the way of my plans. Saturday I was starting to not feel well at all, I ached everywhere and just felt exhausted. So I went to bed early that night and when I woke up on Sunday I felt even worse, with a temperature, stuffy nose and what I call "junky" lungs. I had a performance for my Sign Language group on Sunday and despite having a fever and feeling awful, I went, not wanting to let my group down. Now here I am on a Thursday - still sick. My lungs are feeling better but I still have a stuffed up nose and a sinus headache. I sadly had to re-schedule the camping in my backyard party to next Friday, which I hope people will still be able to attend. 

My mom and I both agree that it is better that I get sick over Spring Break, so I can get better in time for school and not miss any. But still, it'd be nice if I'd be able to have at least one Spring Break while I'm in a college that is fun and filled with friends and I hanging out. My goal for next Spring Break, I just don't want to be sick during it! Just be a normal college student on Spring Break would be a great change!  

Hope and Love,
Becca
