Well I broke my finger and I'm very sick.

[Syn]

My cham gets scared whenever I have one of those coughing fits,
and I'm typing with one hand.

My middle finger was broken this past Thursday night at my last varsity soccer game on the last goal attempt.

Coach was glad I waited until the last game.

Been sick for about a week now.

Coughing, my back hurts all the time, and I'm always so sleepy.

Anyone else having a bad week or HAD bad weeks?

This week was one of those for me...up till about 11 every night and waking up at 6:30, but today kinda neutralized it, i set up a new misting system for my chams and my blue bottle flies just arrived and my chams love them, im sure itll get better

 

[Syn]

O_O School alone starts at 7:20 for me, and I wake up at 5-6. I usually go to bed at 12. Lucky you.

 

[Miss Lily]

Aww, poor you! I can sympathise with you as I've had a bad few weeks too! You are not alone and it's ok to feel a bit sorry for yourself sometimes!

I had a cold virus over Christmas and sprained my rib/shoulder muscles with all the coughing. It was sooo painful - breathing, sniffing, coughing and laughing were agony! Sneezing was totally out of the question - I managed 1 sneeze today without doubling over in pain! Even now (over a month later) sneezing, coughing and laughing still cause some pain. I feel it's improving now so hopefully I'll be back to normal again soon!

Hope you feel better soon - as least you've got your chameleon to help cheer you up!

 

[Syn]

Thanks Miss Lily! He actually enjoys climbing on my finger splint for some odd reason. Sorry to hear about your muscles - I'm feeling close to that, but I haven't sneezed much.

school starts at 8:00 am, but i have to wake up at 4:30 to go running and work out. my parents made me work out when i had a broken arm, and i'm very sick right now. lol i have a lacrosse game today too. bad week 4 me 2

 

[Syn]

Ooh man 4:30, that's early right there.

Sorry about your arm and I hope you feel better! Must be something in the air. *coughs horribly*

 

[THECHAMMAN]

my arm is fine now, but 4:30 is really early. soccer is like lacrosse w/o the bigtime contact. i like soccer, but im not too good.

 

[Syn]

Haha, I'm the goalie anyways.. I do get a ton of foot to face/body contact when getting saves..

Was kicked in the neck once and got a concussion. :\

 

[THECHAMMAN]

niice. i suffered a concussion when me, a defenseman, and another attackman collided. i wasn't allowed to sleep for 24 hrs. goalie has a hard job

 

[Syn]

Collisions are always dangerous. I couldn't sleep for about 8 hours.. was up until like.. 2am and woke up every 2 hours. 4 and 6, then school! Bah.

 

[THECHAMMAN]

when you get a concussion, you aren't supposed to sleep for 24hrs, because your brain may shut down while you sleep and you may die. my dads friend had a concussion, went to sleep, and while he was asleep he died. thats why i now wear a custom helmet.

 

[Syn]

Oh wow. They only told me 8 hours.. Custom helmet - nice.

 

[THECHAMMAN]

the helmet took 20 weeks of allowance, and so far, no concussions. so i guess its working. i guess it depends on how bad u get hit.

 

[Syn]

20 weeks?! Man, it had better work for that!! I don't get allowance so eh.

 

[THECHAMMAN]

yeah, i cant start working till this summer. darn child labor laws.

 

[sandrachameleon]

yeah, i cant start working till this summer. darn child labor laws.

Dont be in such a hurry to loose your childhood. Working is not like playing lacrosse (which happens to be one of my favourite games - do you play box or green?)

I know its easy to feel sorry for yourself when you're sick. But do try to keep some perspective. You live in a country with health care. You have money (or parents) to get you health care. You eat every day. you have clean clothes and a roof over your head. Try to remember that for MOST of the world, these are luxuries they dont have. thousands of people die every day from starvation and curable illness.

so no poor you from me!

 

[Syn]

I wasn't looking for a poor me!

If I wasn't so young I'd try to help other people out more.. but still, not everyone in the US has health care, believe it or not. I didn't for a while when my parents were getting divorced.

But I understand what you're saying Sandra.

 

[THECHAMMAN]

i wish we had free health care like canada. and i wasnt looking for a poor me from anyone. just sharing my experiences to help. i play green LAX. i play box with my friends just to play around. i have a game today.

speaking of keeping a good perspective on things. when i broke my arm, you find things you usually take for granted, like riding a bike, or playing Lacrosse, or doing something you love. so i understand also.

Yeah Canada gets it freeeeee.
